Mince Pies Like A Boss

image
(picture above is of my first attempt at mince pies…EVER!)
Because I am awful at keeping secrets I am going to tell you how to make these amazing pies of love exactly how I made them .
what you will need
  • ready rolled short crust pastry (I ain’t no pro)
  • mixed fruit
  • honey
  • cinnamon
  • ginger
  • orange and lemon shavings citrus is gunna be cold this winter
  • circle pastry cutters
what I did step by step because celeb chefs elongate EVERYTHINGGGGGGG
  1. Get a bowl and some trays that have dips in them…
  2. Put all of the filling thing in like this… fruit in. BAM , Shavings in .BAM. dash of ginger and cinnamon . DOUBLE BAM…. lots of honey in to squeeze it all together.
  3. Get Down with your chef self  and go all out . hands in and squelch it all about.
  4. wash hands because these next steps probably would of been better to be done first.
  5. roll out pastry cut circles and press them in the trays like little pots of christmas joy .
  6. spoon in your amazing filling (not too much tho else people complain about the mass amount of mince…)
  7. put a hat on them by cutting another load of circles to form the hats and press the edges of the hat and the case together
  8. put them in a pre heated oven at 180 degrees for 25 minuets
  9. take them out and sprinkle some icing sugar on them
  10. eat them because you can !
that’s how I made these beautiful creations who needs to be a professional when you can make pies like these ?!
I would love to know any other methods of making them that are similar and as easy as mine.
Merry Christmas!!
