It's that time of year again, the shirt sleeves are getting rolled up, the christmas apron is out the cupboard and I'm swimming in jars of mincemeat. It's December and I can finally put my Christmas tree up and of course, it's time for mince pies!
These are one of my favourite things to eat at christmas, if not my favourite, aside from sausage stuffing balls but that's a whole other drool worthy story! Every year I'm just itching to have mince pies, and every year we end up buying some from the shops for a quick mince pie fix before we get around to making some, and every year I find the store bought mince pies shockingly terrible. You'd think I would have learnt by now but once the first batch is out the oven I guarantee if you're short of mince pies there will always be some in our house, they're like pringles, once you've have a munch you cant stop till you've had them all for lunch.
This is such a quick and easy recipe you could potentially gain time by making these! (just think about it). Would I go as far as saying I can almost hear santa on my roof when I eat them? maybe! Try them out you might even convert and become a mince pie maniac like myself. So without further gilding the lily and with no more ado....
