Mince Tarts Recipes
MINCEMEAT
Mincemeat is a traditional English treat that is usually used as filling for mince pies during Christmas, but it tastes great mixed with vanilla ice cream, as well. This recipe uses butter instead of the traditional suet, which makes this mincemeat suitable for vegetarians. Store in the refrigerator for up to 6 weeks.

Steps:
- Combine cinnamon, cloves, ginger, nutmeg, and allspice in a bowl. Reserve 1 heaped teaspoon for the mincemeat. Store the rest in a small jar for a later use.
- Inspect two 12-ounce jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until mincemeat is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
- Combine apple, sultanas, sugar, currants, raisins, and butter in a saucepan. Cook over low heat and stir gently until butter has melted. Stir in chopped almonds, orange zest, 1 teaspoon of mixed spice, and cinnamon. Bring mixture to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and set mincemeat aside to cool down for 30 minutes. Stir in brandy. Spoon into sterilized jars.

TRADITIONAL BRITISH MINCE PIE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Place the flour, butter, and salt into a large clean bowl.
- Rub the butter quickly into the flour with your fingertips until the mixture resembles rough sand.
- Stir the egg into the mixture using a cold knife.
- Add the cold water, a teaspoon at a time, and stir until the mixture binds but is not sticky.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for a minimum of 15 minutes and up to 30 minutes.
- Gather the ingredients.
- Preheat the oven to 400 F / 200 C / Gas Mark 6. Choose a muffin or bun tin for the size of the tart you want. Choose from a standard 12-cup muffin tin down to small canapé size. The number of pies will depend on the size of the tin you use.
- Dust a work surface lightly with a little flour and roll out 2/3 of the pastry to 1/8 inch thick. Cut circles to line the cups of your tin; don't worry if the pastry doesn't come to the very top.
- Fill the pastry-lined tins 2/3 full with mincemeat.
- Roll out the remaining pastry to the same thickness and cut smaller circles to fit as lids on the tarts or, to be decorative, cut stars or other fancy shapes.
- Dampen the edges of the tart bases with a little cold water and press the lids on. Make a small hole in the surface of each pie with a small sharp knife to allow the steam to escape.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes (15 minutes if making canapé-sized ones), or until golden brown.
- Let cool and sprinkle with the confectioners' sugar.
- Serve and enjoy.

EASY CHRISTMAS MINCE TARTS
Easy recipe using store bought ingredients pepped up with a little brandy and apple. Using ready-rolled frozen pastry makes these tarts very quick to make. If you don't have a tart tray with shallow cups, use a muffin tray but cut the circles of pastry just slightly larger than the base of the cups so that it makes a shallow tart. I have assumed that the tarts will be cooked in three batches but if you have more than one tray, this could be reduced.

Steps:
- Quarter and core the apple.
- Grate the apple without peeling.
- Add the grated apple and brandy to the fruit mincemeat.
- Cut out 36 circles from the shortcrust pastry to line the tray.
- Add a teaspoon of the fruit mixture to each tart.
- Cut out 36 Christmas shapes from the puff pastry. I have star, heart, tree and bell shapes that I use for this recipe.
- Put a puff pastry shape on top of each tart.
- Mix together the golden syrup and water and use it to brush each puff pastry. This browns the puff pastry.
- Bake for 15 minutes in an oven set to 200°C.

Steps:
- Put all the ingredients for the mincemeat in a bowl and add brandy or rum to cover the fruit. Stir well, then let it rest overnight. The next day, stir again and then divide among sterilized preserving jars.
- To make the pastry, mix the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Rub the butter into the mixture until it is the consistency of fine breadcrumbs. Add the water and egg yolk and knead until the mixture comes together into a smooth dough. Alternatively, use a food processor to make the pastry. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
- Preheat your oven to 350° F. Grease the tart molds with butter and cover the base of each with a small circle of parchment paper. Dust with flour.
- Briefly knead the pastry until smooth, then pat it into a rectangle and roll it out to a thickness of ⅛ inch. Use a round cutter with a diameter of 2¾ - 3¼ inches to cut out pastry circles. Gently push the pastry rounds into the tart molds. Prick the base or each tart shell three times with a fork.
- Knead the remaining dough back together and roll it out to cut out the lids-you can choose whichever shape you like, but stars are the most traditional.
- Divide the 8 ounces of filling among the tarts and press down gently. Place the lids on top and brush with the egg wash.
- Bake in the middle of the oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm or cold.

- To make the mince filling: In a small bowl, set aside 1/2 cup (67g) of the golden raisins and 1/3 cup (43g) of the currants. (These will be mixed into the filling later.), Place the remaining raisins (golden and regular), currants, chopped apple, mixed candied peel, grated orange and lemon rind, sugar, spice, and salt in the work bowl of a food processor. Process until finely minced, but not puréed.
- Add the almonds and process briefly, just to break up the almonds., Transfer the mixture to a bowl. Stir in the golden raisins and currants that were set aside, then add the melted butter., Mix in brandy to taste., Cover tightly and store the mince filling in the refrigerator for up to a month, until ready to use., To make the crust by hand: Combine the flour and salt in a bowl. Add the butter, mixing it in thoroughly until it looks like breadcrumbs. Drizzle in the water, tossing as you go, until you've added enough water so that you can squeeze the dough together and it's cohesive.
- To make the crust using a food processor: Mix the flour, salt, and butter, pulsing till the mixture resembles fine crumbs. With the motor going, drizzle in the ice water, stopping when the dough comes together. It should hold together nicely; if it doesn't, add a bit more water., Divide the dough in half, and shape each piece into a disc. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes or overnight., When you're ready to prepare the tarts, remove the dough from the refrigerator. If it's been chilling for longer than 30 minutes, let it warm for 15 minutes or so, until it's rollable. Preheat your oven to 400°F., Working with one piece of dough at a time, roll it into a 10" circle, about 1/8" thick., Cut rounds of dough to fit your pan of choice. For a standard muffin pan, cut a dozen 3 1/2" circles (English muffin rings work well here). For a mini muffin pan, cut two dozen 2 1/2" circles (a small-sized biscuit cutter works well here)., Nestle the dough circles gently into the muffin cups
