Mrs. White'S Treacle Pie

  1. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of 1/8in/3mm and use to line a 8in/20cm pie tin. Trim off any overhanging pastry and chill for 20 minutes. Reserve the pastry trimmings for the top.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400u0b0F/200u0b0C. Place a baking tray in the oven to heat.
  3. Place the golden syrup in a saucepan and heat through. Remove from the heat and stir in the breadcrumbs, lemon zest and lemon juice. Spread the mixture evenly into the pastry case.
  4. Roll out the reserved trimmings and cut into 10-12 strips.Twist the strips into spirals and then lay half of them over the pie filling. Arrange the remaining strips at right angles to the first strips to form a lattice. Press the ends of the strips on to the rim of the pastry case.
  5. Place the pie on the hot baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Lower the temperature of the oven to 375u0b0F/190u0b0C and bake for a further 15 minutes. Serve warm with custard.
