It's basically an inspired assemblage rather than a recipe. They are worth trying rather than buying as I find traditional mince pies a little too rich and sickly.
Preheat oven to 180 degees
A dozen premade short crust pastry cases or cut circles of good quality short crust into rounds and place into cupcake tins
1 400g jar of good quality mincemeat add a grated green apple and some lemon zest.
Put mincemeat equally in each tart base
Top with rounds of puff pastry and press down sides to stop filling from bubbling out.
Egg wash tops and sprinkle with raw sugar.
Poke a small hole in the top of each one with a knife
Bake for 30 min or until tops are slightly puffed and dark golden.
Dust with icing sugar and enjoy.
