Spiced Autumn Walnut and Golden Syrup Tart-Pie image

This sticky and lightly spiced walnut tart is absolutely perfect for any autumn gathering, especially Thanksgiving, Halloween or Bonfire Night. It combines walnuts together with warm spices and a hint of orange, which are all bound together in a buttery syrup filling.......if you cannot get hold of golden syrup, you can use honey instead. Serve this pie with a dollop of cream, crème fraiche or yoghurt.

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 Walnut and Syrup Tart/Pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

150 g plain flour
1 pinch salt
75 g butter
3 medium eggs
1 tablespoon milk
50 g demerara sugar
150 ml golden syrup or 150 ml organic honey
50 g butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 orange, rind of, finely grated
150 g shelled walnut halves

Steps:

  • PASTRY.
  • Sift the flour and salt into a bowl then rub the butter in until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Then stir in enough water to give a soft but not sticky dough. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface then use to line a 30cm x 10cm / 12in x 4in rectangular fluted flan tin. Trim off any excess pastry then line with baking paper and beans and bake blind in a preheated oven at 200°C/400°F/Gas 6 for 10 minutes. Remove the paper and beans and cook for a further 5 minutes until lightly browned.
  • Meanwhile beat the eggs and milk together. Boil the Demerara sugar and syrup together in a saucepan for about 2-3 minutes. Stir in the butter, cinnamon, vanilla and orange rind and cool slightly. Slowly pour the syrup mixture onto the beaten eggs and milk mixture.
  • Scatter the walnuts over the pastry case and then spoon the syrup mixture over and smooth over the surface with the back of a spoon.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 220°C/425°F/Gas 7 for 10 minutes then reduce the heat to 170°C/325°F/Gas 3 and cook for a further 40-50 minutes or until the filling is set.
  • Serve either hot or cold with a dollop of cream, creme fraiche or yoghurt.

This tart is a great way to use up leftover walnuts. I had a bunch of walnuts that were about to go bad, so I decided to make this tart. It was a great decision!

This tart is absolutely delicious! The filling is rich and flavorful, and the crust is perfectly flaky. I will definitely be making this again.

I had some trouble getting the crust to brown properly. I think I may have needed to bake it for a few minutes longer.

This tart is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I think I'll try using less golden syrup next time.

This is my new favorite fall tart recipe. The walnuts and golden syrup are a perfect combination, and the spices give it a cozy, autumnal flavor.

This tart was easy to make and turned out beautifully. I used a store-bought crust to save time, but the filling was so flavorful that it didn't matter.

I'm not usually a fan of walnuts, but they were surprisingly delicious in this tart. The golden syrup added a lovely sweetness and the spices gave it a nice warmth.
