Molasses

Newfoundland Jam Jams. Jam Jams from Purity Factories are a Newfoundland institution. Here’s a recipe for my homemade version of this local molasses and jam cookie classic.

Old English Fruitcake. Dark and moist with plenty of spices and packed with plenty of sweet glacé fruit. It’s been a Christmas tradition in my family for decades.

Steamed Molasses Raisin Pudding. A long time Newfoundland favourite that’s easy to make and is delicious served with our recipe for simple butterscotch sauce.

Rum Raisin Fruitcake – a simplified recipe for your choice of a a spiced or un-spiced cake, featuring no other fruit than raisins, which have been soaked overnight in rum.

Newfoundland Molasses Raisin Tea Buns. My decades old recipe for soft, delicious, sweet molasses raisin tea buns that can be made using cinnamon as well. Perfect for a mug up any time.

Christmas Pudding. This simplified recipe is baked, not steamed but still has all the great molasses spice flavour of a traditional pudding. Incredibly delicious with our Rum & Butter Sauce!

Lassy Mogs. A Newfoundland favourite; well spiced, soft cookies with a deep molasses flavour and filled with dried fruit and crunchy pecans. Irresistible!

Hot Cross Molasses Raisin Tea Buns. A quicker alternative to hot cross buns, especially if you love the flavour of molasses.

Blueberry Gingerbread Cake with Toffee Sauce. A moist and delicious homemade gingerbread cake bursting with blueberries and served warm with an easy to make toffee sauce.

Oven Fried Chicken Wings with Honey Molasses Barbecue Sauce. These beautifully seasoned oven fried chicken wings are so crispy without ever having been near an oil filled skillet or deep fryer.
