Steps to make Vickys Christmas Mincemeat Puff Pastry Pies, GF DF EF SF NF:

1. To make the mincemeat, put all the ingredients into a large bowl except for the brandy, and combine well

3. Preheat the oven on the lowest setting around gas mark 1/4 / 120C / 225°F
4. Put the mincemeat mixture into a large ovenproof dish, cover with foil and bake for 3 hours
5. When you take it out it will look like it's swimming in grease, it's meant to so don't panic!
6. Let it cool stirring when you feel like it. Stir in the brandy when it's completely cooled

11. Brush the tops with some more milk, sprinkle with caster sugar and bake for 15-20 minutes or until risen and golden
12. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving gently to a wire rack to cool completely
13. Serve cold with a dusting of icing sugar, or warm with some brandy butter or clotted cream and a glass of sherry! Pure Christmas!
