We used fresh pineapple but the recipe actually says use tinned. The Mrs used about 20% less of the syrup than the recipe says but you could still taste it. After an hour of cooking it is worth testing with a metal stick to see if it is cooked. In our fan oven it was ready after about 60 minutes so it could be different if it is a gas oven. Definitely worth a try as it is nice on its own and even better with caramel sauce and ice cream!!

Not sure if you get golden syrup or an equivalent in mainland Europe - not something we have looked for but this is what it is.

Mmm, looks tasty :giggle:
We have rhubarbs in our garden and the missus made some pie yesterday - heaven with some vanilla ice cream 😋. I must have behaved in recent days...☺️
 
That looks more like our black treacle which is much darker and thicker and is also known as molasses.

Mmmm, rhubarb. We have just started seeing it in the shops but is very expensive. Once we can get to a garden centre again we were going to try growing it. Used to have it ages ago.
