How to make it

  • Combine all fruits and spices in a saucepan, cook uncovered over low heat until apple is soft (about 20 minutes), stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
  • Pour into a non-metallic bowl, cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 375F.
  • Combine flours in a large bowl.
  • Cut in shortening until mixture is like coarse-meal.
  • In a cup combine water and egg replacer.
  • Add to flour mix, stir well.
  • Turn out of a floured board, knead lightly, cover and leave to rest for 10-15 minutes.
  • Roll out dough, cut 12 circles that fit the bottoms and sides of muffin tins.
  • With a smaller cutter (either circle or decorative… your choice!) cut remaining pastry into 12 “hats” for the tarts.
  • Fit dough “bottoms” into the tins, spoon room-temperature (or thereabouts) mincemeat into each.
  • Place pastry “hats” on the centre of each tart, leaving some open space around the edges.
  • Bake for 20 - 30 minutes

    Mincemeat tarts are my favourite around the holidays. It's not Xmas without them.
