Vegan Treacle Toffee Recipe

A bonfire night recipe as old as bonfire night itself (probably) and pretty unlikely to scare the furry members of your family. Our accidentally vegan recipe for your sweet tooth: Vegan Treacle Toffee.

INGREDIENTS

• 450g Billington’s Fairtrade Demerara Sugar
• 125ml Hot Water
• ¼ tsp Cream of Tartar
• 115g Rayners Organic Fairtrade Black Treacle
• 115g Rayners Organic Fairtrade Golden Syrup
• A little oil for greasing

METHOD
*TIP: Read all of the instructions before you begin. Also, when weighing out your ingredients, put them in a greased jug to make them easier to pour out.

• Line the base & sides of a baking tin around the size of
  A4 piece of paper, with IF YOU CARE Baking Paper and then grease it well with the oil.
• Put the sugar and hot water in a pan and heat gently until the sugar has dissolved. DO NOT STIR IT! Tilt the pan instead if you feel you need to move it.
• Add the rest of the ingredients to the now dissolved sugar mixture. Use a sugar thermometer to bring it to the boil until it reaches 140C. It can take a while, but remember not to stir it and don’t leave it unattended as it can change fast!
• When it reaches 140C, pour it into the tin you greased earlier. Leave to cool.
• Once cooled, break it up using a rolling pin.
• It’s ready to eat!
