Ingredients
- 1 c mincemeat
Pastry:
- 2 cups + 2 Tbsp flour
- 1 ¼ ticks (150 g) unsalted butter (good quality or 50% butter/ 50% lard)
- ½ tsp sea salt (omit if using salted butter)
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- ice water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375˚ F (190˚ C).
- Follow instructions for homemade pie pastry.Or cut the butter into the flour with two knives or a pastry cutter, then add the sugar and enough ice water, just so the pastry comes together without falling apart. If you add too much water, the dough will be tough.
- Roll out the dough to about ¼" and cut into rounds to place into cupcake tins or small tartlet tins.
- Next, fill the pastry cases with some mincemeat. Top with a star or cover entirely with another piece of pastry (make a hole in the top).
- Place the mince pies on a baking tray into preheated oven. Bake for about 15 to 18 minutes until the pastry becomes a golden brown color.
- Finally, sprinkle with a little sugar, immediately after being removed from the oven. Store in an airtight tin.
