I never used to like mince pies (yes I’m strange I know), and now that I do like them I only really like home made ones. However the other day I tried some shop bought ones made with puff pastry and I liked them, so thought I would give it a go at making them myself and then hopefully I would really really like them!
Ingredients

Mincemeat
Caster Sugar

2. Grease and line a baking tray

4. Cut two circles out of the pastry for each pie
5. Spoon the mincemeat into the centre of one of the circles and cover with the other, pressing together the edges
6. Cut a cross on the top of each pie and lightly dust with caster sugar
