Ingredients you'll need
For the crust:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup cold water
1 egg, beaten for egg wash
For the filling:
1 cup raisins
1 cup currants
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup dried apricots, chopped
1/4 cup candied peel
1/4 cup brandy or rum (optional)
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Start by making the crust. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, and salt. Add in the cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Slowly pour in the cold water and mix until the dough comes together. Roll the dough into a ball, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
In the meantime, make the filling. In a large bowl, mix together the raisins, currants, cranberries, apricots, candied peel, brandy or rum (if using), brown sugar, spices, and salt. Stir in the melted butter until everything is well combined.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface and cut out circles to fit into the muffin tin. Press the dough into each cup, leaving a little overhang on the edges. Fill each crust with the fruit mince filling, then top with a small circle of dough. Use a fork to crimp the edges and make a small slit on top to allow steam to escape.
Brush the tops with the beaten egg and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Let them cool for a few minutes before removing from the tin and serving warm or at room temperature.
This Christmas fruit mince pie recipe is a delicious and festive treat that will surely impress your loved ones. The combination of rich, spiced fruit filling and buttery crust is simply irresistible. So, don't wait any longer and try making these pies for your next holiday gathering. Happy baking!
