Add small sized balls of pastry into each hole and spoon mincemeat into the pies.

7.

Now take slightly smaller balls of pastry than before and pat them in between your hands to make round lids, big enough to cover the pies.

9.

Brush the top of the pies with milk and bake for 20 minutes until golden.

Mince Pies Recipes

There are many varieties of mincemeat in the shops now, and most are suitable for vegetarians but do check the label. You can always customise a jar of mincemeat by adding citrus zest (oranges and clementines work well), alcohol like brandy, sloe gin or ginger wine, or extra fresh fruit like finely chopped apple or orange.

First make the pastry. Put the flour, ground almonds, icing sugar and butter in a food processor (or a freestanding mixer fitted with a paddle attachment) and pulse until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs and starts to clump together a little. Add the egg yolk and pulse again, then gradually add 1–2 tablespoons of very cold water, until the mixture comes together into a slightly tacky dough. Wrap in cling film and chill.
