Ingredients

Servings
  • 50 g vegan margarine (3 tablespoons)
  • 330 g dried fruit 2+⅓ cups) I used a mixture of raisins, dried cranberries, sultanas and glace cherries, roughly chopped
  • 50 g mixed peel (3 tablespoons)
  • 1 small apple sub for any other green apple, Bramley, peeled, cored and finely chopped
  • 50 g almonds ⅓ cup, finely chopped, blanched
  • 100 g light brown sugar (½ cup)
  • ½ Teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ Teaspoon allspice I used this one
  • Zest and juice lemon
  • 150 ml dark rum ½ cup + 2 tablespoons) sub for fruit juice for mincemeat without alcohol, or sherry or brandy

Notes

  • Store in airtight containers, zip lock bags or jars in the fridge for up to 1 month.
  • If you stir in the alcohol at the end, once the mixture has cooled, you can store mincemeat in sterilised jars for up to 2 years in a cool, dry place.
  • This recipe makes around 750g of vegan mincemeat or 3 packed cups. It's enough to fill 12-24 mince pies, depending on how deep the pies are. Multiply or divide the recipe as needed.
  • The liquid part of the mixture will seem quite runny at first but will become thicker and stickier after 24 hours in the fridge. 
  • Recipe is adapted from Mary Berry's special mincemeat.
