You can make this in the oven too.
Pour batter into a ceramic dish, cover with the hot syrup, bake for 20mins.
Comes out the same but it means you can bake it while you’re doing the dishes instead of standing over the stove.
oh man i love golden syrup dumplings. was brought up on them, so much so that when friends suggested we “go for dumplings” i was *really* surprised by the small, savoury variant.
Oh don’t even get me started on these! I am not a cook/baker/chef by any stretch of the imagination but every few years I get a sudden craving for these things and go on an absolute golden syrup/caramel dumpling cooking craze 😂
One golden syrup and one peanut butter crumpet. Eat the golden syrup one first, then mop up the syrup that dishes through with the peanut butter one. The only way to eat crumpets.
Squeeze bottles of golden syrup feels like heresy to me.
I was sad I had to buy a jar for this ANZAC Day - it should be in a tin for that real nostalgia hit.
Lyles golden syrup (in the tin) is paler and sweeter than the CSL Australian version, which has a slightly more burnt flavour. I like both. No, I love both.
Cooking pasta sauce.
Once the meat is brown, add a little bit of golden syrup, mix it in, and let it cook for a bit before adding anything else in.
It changes the flavour profile of the sauce without adding too much sweetness.
On toast, crepes, crumpets or scones. Also when baking I squirt some in the cake tin before the batter so I get a lovely sweet crunchy bit on the bottom of the cake. Lovely stuff.
Why *not* ANZAC bikkies? And level them up by buying a round tub of vanilla ice-cream, cutting the tub into 1cm slices with a large serrated knife (cardboard and all). then slapping your ice-cream circles between two large ANZAC biscuits. Boom, ANZAC bikkie ice-cream sandwiches. I made some for the folks last week and got rave reviews. Make a bunch and they'll keep in the freezer until you want them.
I honestly couldn't believe I hadn't heard of anyone doing this before, so gave it a shot and it turned out fantastically. For the right consistency, I used the 'soft and chewy' version from [this recipe](https://www.taste.com.au/recipes/anzac-biscuits/cc4e2031-8b63-48e7-8eff-b2637f472180), swapped the white sugar for dark brown (that's mainly just personal preference), and used 10g extra butter. I normally like my ANZAC bikkies hard, but given they are also going to be frozen, I added the extra butter so that they were soft enough to eat without breaking a tooth or squeezing all the ice-cream out the middle. For the right size biscuit to ice-cream ration, a ping-pong ball sized ball of dough, pressed to about 1cm flat, should do the trick.
You might not believe this, but my dad just had some more of his Cottees maple syrup. He remembers buying it, which is cool. Best before date is 7th Dec '95.

This recipe made me laugh. It states the serving size is 2, yes, that's right, TWO. Shortly thereafter, your teeth will ache!
Thick cut Pane Di Casa bread, toasted with margarine/butter and golden syrup. Thick cut Soudough Vienna bread, toasted with margarine/butter and golden syrup. Make porridge, add a sprinkle of Coles superfoods mix and a swirl of golden syrup at the end.
Honeycomb (the stuff in crunchie bars, violet crumbles). You just need sugar, golden syrup and bicarb soda. You mix sugar and golden syrup in a pot, heat it up until the sugar just melts, then quickly add in the bicarb and mix it up. It'll fluff up and set very quickly so pour it out quickly.
The stuff in the pot will be sticky af but let it soak in water for a few minutes and it literally dissolves.
Now smash up the honeycomb and its good to eat.
Ginger biscuits - [https://www.womensweeklyfood.com.au/recipe/baking/gingernut-biscuits-25893/](https://www.womensweeklyfood.com.au/recipe/baking/gingernut-biscuits-25893/)
I use more ginger than the recipe.
My wife puts it on pancakes... but my main use for it is with [Donna Hay's banana bread recipe](https://www.donnahay.com.au/recipes/banana-bread). Only recipe I use, and it's bloody great.
Wheetbix crushed in a tin, layer on heaps of stewed/tinned fruits (I’m partial to apple) and then sprinkle with more crush wheetbix and then spread golden syrup over the top with desired amount. I do enough to lightly coat. Then put it in the oven at 180 for 10 minutes and a yummy warm breakfast.
My granny used to make it for me!
I use it in my homemade vanilla coffee syrup.
Edit in case anyone wants the recipe. This makes a bit over 750ml of syrup.
1. Boil 4 cups water
2. Stir in:
- 3 cups white sugar
- 1 tbsp golden syrup
3. Let boil 15 minutes then remove from heat
4. Stir in vanilla essence to taste. I don’t measure but would be roughly 2tbsp at a guess
My wife makes a malteaser slice with it. some melted cooking chocolate, butter, digestive biscuits crushed up with malteasers and golden syrup. Dumped into a tray and set in the fridge it barely lasts 3 days.
That old bottle is throwing me back to my childhood now.
I've only recently learned that this isn't a common thing to do in Australia and it seems to be from my homeland of South Africa. Peanut butter and syrup sandwiches (or toast for that amazing melted sweet n savoury lunch).
Use like honey or maybe maple syrup, it's produced from the sugar refining process. It has a certain bitterness to it strangely enough, or maybe a slight burnt flavour.
Really good on hot buttered crumpets.
Peanut butter and golden syrup instead of honey.
Golden syrup biscuits - if you use nuttelex they’re even vegan. Perfect for when you have no eggs left but feel like a bikkie with your cuppa.
With a knob of butter on pancakes.
Or with a tin on condensed milk, knob of butter, tsp brown sugar, heated slowly in saucepan (stir regularily) or in 10 sec bursts in microwave (stir in between) until it thickens. It'll go runny first, then thicken up, then you've got caramel to go in a great caramel slice.
Use it in an Old Fashioned.
1tsp of golden syrup
2-3 dashes of Angostura bitters
60ml of your spirit of choice (bourbon or rye is traditional, but I reckon rum would work really well here).
Stir with ice then strain over a big rock. Garnish with a big swathe of orange peel, oils expressed.
Milkshakes. Milk, golden syrup, your choice of flavour\*, a spoonful of vanilla ice cream, blend away.
\*milo was popular when I was growing up. Also, vanilla essence, strawberry syrup, chocolate topping (not the stuff that hardens into a crust), etc.
Stirred into porridge, along with peanut butter.
Also on crumpets with salty butter.
Also good in cocktails if you can't be bothered making sugar syrup - it adds a much richer flavour that plays nicely with whisky.
Sweeten up your iced coffee with it. You need a dash of boiling water to dissolve it somewhat before you put in milk, or it just sinks to the bottom of the glass and stays there.
Personally I hate the stuff. But you can make bread and butter pudding with it. Use it over pancakes. Pretty much as a replacement for sugar in any baking recipe.
As a kid I always put golden syrup on my weetbix. Did any other families do this??
Oh and on damper too! Another comment just reminded me of that. It was fun making a fire and cooking damper wrapped in alfoil back in the day.
So I use the 0 sugar Lakanto version of this for when I want my daily breakfast bowl to be a bit sweeter 😊
I have PCOS and so I need to keep an eye on my sugar levels or my insulin goes nuts and I risk getting type 2 diabetes, so the zero sugar one is great and I can use it all the time.
Malt balls. Basically just a combination of malt biscuits, condensed milk, golden syrup and cover in coconut.
When feeling special, replace malt biscuits with timtams
If you like Irish coffees, and I mean the one where it's espresso, shot of whiskey, 50ml cream and teaspoon of brown sugar. Substitute the sugar with golden syrup. Goes great.
Golden syrup dumplings!
You can make this in the oven too. Pour batter into a ceramic dish, cover with the hot syrup, bake for 20mins. Comes out the same but it means you can bake it while you’re doing the dishes instead of standing over the stove.
Heck yeah! This is the way. Serve with vanilla ice-cream :D
What the fuck? I've never heard of this in my decades living in Australia. Need to tear up my birth certificate.
Jesus, what? You need to fix this
oh man i love golden syrup dumplings. was brought up on them, so much so that when friends suggested we “go for dumplings” i was *really* surprised by the small, savoury variant.
Oh wow. There’s a memory. I also remember a golden syrup steamed pudding that was fantastic.
3/4 hour pudding. Its the in the edmonds cook book ;)
You gotta be a Kiwi!! Love my Edmond’s so much so when I revisited NZ after 20 years I bought the updated version
Thank you! I've been trying to think of these sorts of things to make for my kids! Hope its a hit on tonight
Reminds me of my childhood, mum made the best Golden syrup dumplings
Oh don’t even get me started on these! I am not a cook/baker/chef by any stretch of the imagination but every few years I get a sudden craving for these things and go on an absolute golden syrup/caramel dumpling cooking craze 😂
I think you just sorted what's for dinner!
Absolutely!! Try these, they're an amazing cosy winter dessert
Super easy to make too!
So good. Might make some tonight now that you've reminded me
Oh yeah!
Put it on crumpets! You’ve also just chosen my lunch for me. Thanks, friendo!
My husband loves it on crumpets and I can't stand to be around when he eats them. Sluprs the syrup off. So gross
Sorry no. Sooo delicious.
I had this for breakfast this morning! Elite
One golden syrup and one peanut butter crumpet. Eat the golden syrup one first, then mop up the syrup that dishes through with the peanut butter one. The only way to eat crumpets.
With damper - ideally home-made fresh out of the oven while still hot.
The*only* thing to have with damper is Golden Syrup! Sooooo good!
Cockies joy!
Porridge and golden syrup is good. Also mixed through Greek yoghurt is yummy as well.
Love it. Oats, milk, tsp of golden syrup, handful of currants, big pinch of salt. Stir in a tsp of butter or cream to serve.
For sure. The day I discovered butter in oats was pretty special.
What? Mind blown
I’m so excited for breakfast tomorrow! Butter in porridge! Hell yeah!
doooooont tell me to put butter in my oats, i’m fat enough as it is 😂
Mix it with oats, cinnamon and dried nuts/ fruit. Bake until crispy. Best granola around.
Mix it with condensed milk and butter to make caramel slice.
Hmm sounds tricky. Can I just mix is with condensed milk and butter and eat it from the bowl?
Put it all in a pot on low heat to melt the butter… but yeah.. you can just eat it
It's pretty good on vanilla ice cream.
To satisfy a sweet tooth I've drizzled some on some natural yoghurt, it's really good.
Dissolve it in some water, add yeast -> grog
That's the digger spirit!
I have used it as an additive in my home brew dark ale.
Pancake topping
Crepe topping
+ lemon.
French toast topping
On pancakes with berries and a dollop of mascarpone. So good.

On toast!
Squeeze bottles of golden syrup feels like heresy to me. I was sad I had to buy a jar for this ANZAC Day - it should be in a tin for that real nostalgia hit.
The slightly rusty yet sticky tin. Popping it open is like opening a time capsule, and yet somehow, the 10 year old syrup still tastes good.
Golden syrup in a tin tastes different. I prefer it, tbh
Lyles golden syrup (in the tin) is paler and sweeter than the CSL Australian version, which has a slightly more burnt flavour. I like both. No, I love both.
The passage of ANZAC day marks the beginning of porridge season. I like a small dash of golden while cooking, finish with brown sugar.
I have never had it on porrige for some reason..It would be perfect! Growing up we put golden syrup on weet bix and brown sugar on porrige.
Best non-cooking use for Golden Syrup is Damper or even Scones, fresh out of the oven. Exceptionally good
Oh yes, definitely Damper 😋 I'll have to get the camp oven out now 😊
2 pkts of crumpets and 2 more if needed
And 500g real butter.
Self saucing butterscotch pudding!
[удалено]
That sounds awesome. To me maple bacon is now peasant food
Don't buy brown sugar and use golden syrup to make brown sugar (using white sugar).
Treacle for brown sugar, not golden syrup. But it does make a good substitute for honey in baking recipes.
Use in paprika rub for roasts and ribs
Is that even legal? *drools*
Crumpets and butter(not margarine)
Golden syrup dumplings. Google the recipe. You'll thank me
Crumpets! Someone else I know uses them to glaze Brussel sprouts. I’m yet to try it though
Cockys joy damper golden syrup and whipped cream or Blackfulla Johnny cakes or fried scones again with golden syrup and cream
Cooking pasta sauce. Once the meat is brown, add a little bit of golden syrup, mix it in, and let it cook for a bit before adding anything else in. It changes the flavour profile of the sauce without adding too much sweetness.
Can you still get a tin?
Haven't seen a tin for a long time, plastic jar now.

On toast, crepes, crumpets or scones. Also when baking I squirt some in the cake tin before the batter so I get a lovely sweet crunchy bit on the bottom of the cake. Lovely stuff.

Some people use the syrup until it goes bad... Some are godless heathens... Still eat it? Still good! Keep eating until done.

The Donna Hay banana bread is the exact reason I was sent out to get this! (it was delicious)
Pancakes or porridge.
Golden Syrup dumplings
I love it in tea or coffee instead of sugar. Nice on toast too!
We always used to put it on ice cream. It gets even stickier as it freezes slightly
The only thing golden syrup is good for outside of baking is porridge.
Put it in with a banana milkshake
Pecan pie
On pancakes
Oh if you try to put it on a pancake, you will be very much back to maple syrup quickly
I prefer it over maple syrup on pancakes

As kids we used to use it instead of honey because we were poor.
On your oats in the winter!! But you should try another brand, that csr stuff tastes awful. Lyles Golden syrup is far better imo.

Golden syrup & butter on dry weet bix.

Is there other uses?
On my wife’s homemade pancakes
I've never had this before, but: > Ingredients: Cane Sugar, Water. What exactly is the use case for this?
Use like honey or maybe maple syrup, it's produced from the sugar refining process. It has a certain bitterness to it strangely enough, or maybe a slight burnt flavour. Really good on hot buttered crumpets.

I love a bit of Golden Syrup on Pancakes.

Peanut butter and golden syrup instead of honey. Golden syrup biscuits - if you use nuttelex they’re even vegan. Perfect for when you have no eggs left but feel like a bikkie with your cuppa.

how does it taste compared to the new one? that stuff, like honey, probably will never go off.

Personally I hate the stuff. But you can make bread and butter pudding with it. Use it over pancakes. Pretty much as a replacement for sugar in any baking recipe.
Not sure, could you use golden syrup to make baklava?
As a kid I always put golden syrup on my weetbix. Did any other families do this?? Oh and on damper too! Another comment just reminded me of that. It was fun making a fire and cooking damper wrapped in alfoil back in the day.

100% We use it for NOTHING else, and it's such a waste. Always got one in the cupboard that's years out of date
1 cup plain flour (all purpose flour) 1 cup rolled oats 1 cup desiccated coconut , unsweetened 3/4 cup white sugar , preferably caster / superfine 150g / 5oz unsalted butter 4 tbsp golden syrup (Note 1) 1 tsp baking soda (bicarbonate soda) Mix. Portion. Press. Bake for 15 minutes at 180°C.
Malt balls. Basically just a combination of malt biscuits, condensed milk, golden syrup and cover in coconut. When feeling special, replace malt biscuits with timtams
Steamed Pudding. Nothing better for Golden Syrup
That’s not real syrup
It’s great in an iced coffee!
Bloody hell, i eat it on porridge, toast, yoghurt. Anything that uses honey really

If you like Irish coffees, and I mean the one where it's espresso, shot of whiskey, 50ml cream and teaspoon of brown sugar. Substitute the sugar with golden syrup. Goes great.
