Our taster night is on Thursday, so I am making these!
Pete’s Filo Mince Pies
Ingredients
1 Pack of filo pastry (makes 36 pies)
1 Egg (ff)
1Tbsp Milk
2Tbsp Sweetener
Mincemeat (411g jar makes 24 pies)
Preheat the oven to Gas 4, 350°F, 180°C
Place the sweetener in a mortar & pestle & reduced to a dust, set aside for later.
Cut a piece of greaseproof paper the size of an oven tin.
Method
On a clean, cool work surface place the filo sheets on top of each other and cut into 10cm strips giving you 36 pieces, remove one,
Cover the other strips with a damp cloth, brush the strip with the egg & milk mixed together, lay out and place a heaped tsp of
Mincemeat at the bottom of the strip and fold diagonally to enclose the ingredients and form a triangle, press down and fold again until you reach the end, place on the baking tray covered with greaseproof paper coated in fry light. Egg wash all the pies.
Cook for approx. 10 mins until the pastry has puffed up and browned, remove and sprinkle with sweetener through a fine sieve, while hot.
