Method
- It truly wouldn’t be Christmas without having to be offered a mince cake, wouldn't it? I made the decision to perform a little bit of reinventing around the classic mince cake, so within this recipe I’m using a mix of puff and filo pastry, each of can be bought ready-made store for added convenience.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/400F/gas 6. Scoop the mincemeat right into a mixing bowl and blend within the dried berries, the clementine zest and also the sherry or brandy.
- Dust a clear work surface with flour and unveil the puff pastry right into a big rectangle about 20cm x 40cm and also the thickness of the pound gold coin. Thinly spread the mincemeat within the pastry, departing a 1cm gap round the edges. Tightly roll-up the pastry, lengthways, just like a Swiss roll, put it on the floured tray, and play the fridge to set.
- Take two cupcake trays (for 12 cupcakes each) and butter each one of these gently using the melted butter. Place one layer of filo pastry within the tray (you might need several sheet to pay for each tray with respect to the size the sheets) and ease the pastry into each hole. Brush using the melted butter, then cover having a second layer of filo pastry. Brush with butter again.
- Go ahead and take puff pastry roll from the fridge and, having a sharp knife, work into 24 slices. Place each slice, flat-side lower, right into a filo-lined hole. Brush using the egg and sprinkle a couple of flaked almonds on the top of every little cake, then pop both trays within the oven for around 25 minutes, until cooked and golden brown.
- Leave to awesome, then crack the person pies from the trays. Dust after some icing sugar before serving.
- PS You are able to freeze the cooked, cooled mince pies within their trays (just wrap all in cling film) or perhaps in a plastic container. Just reheat these questions hot oven right out the freezer.
