I purchased many jars of sweet mincemeat last month when they were reduced from £1 to only 5p a jar - that meant I got 20 jars for only £1 - now that is a bargain!
I had made many sweet mincemeat pies and wanted to do something different and a friend suggested baked apples stuffed with sweet mincemeat. (PS I purchased vegan product).
Ingredients:
5 Apples (doesn't need to be baking apples)
200g of Mincemeat
30g Butter
Instructions:
Step 1: Remove the core from the apples and then slice the top of the apple off. Then remove extra apple from the middle to leave enough room to stuff it.
Step 2: Stuff the hole with the sweet mincemeat.
Step 3: Add a little bit of butter to the apple too then place the top part of the apple on top.
Step 4: Place into an ovenproof dish and add a few tablespoons of water to the dish.
Step 5: Place into an oven for about 45 minutes. 180, 360, 4
Step 6: Serve with a choice of either honey, custard or ice-cream.
