Treacle Tart
A dear family friend is from England and came here during WWII after he and his family were bombed out of 3 homes. This is one of their family favorites:

Place 6 T. "Golden Syrup" (light molasses) in a small saucepan with 2 oz. fresh white bread crumbs, grated rind from 1 lemon and 1 t. fresh squeezed lemon juice. Heat gently to melt; cool.

Roll short crust pastry and line 8-inch pie plate; pour in syrup mixture. With remaining pastry, roll and cut into strips for lattice topping.

Bake in hot oven - 400* F. - 25 to 30 minutes or until lightly browned.

You can use honey in place of the Golden Syrup or maple syrup or corn syrup.
