Making your own mincemeat

[MrsKingfisher]

Does anyone have an amazing recipe for making mincemeat for mince pies?

Oh also without suet!

I like Hettie's

I like Delia’s recipe - it tastes good, is easy to make and keeps well.

Nigella's recipe with fresh cranberries is delicious!

Mary Berry uses butter instead of suet. It is absolutely delicious! www.maryberry.co.uk/recipes/christmas/special-mincemeat

I found this one too

I think I'm going to be overloaded with different mincemeats this year!

It isn't mincemeat without proper butcher's suet!

Another vote for Delia's... Delicious and makes the entire house smell like Christmas for days!

We always use vegetable suet in ours. It is a family tradition making the mincemeat and Christmas pudding together and then making a wish!

Delia's is fab and fool proof. Uses suet but I always use vegetable suet anyway so that I can serve to friends who wouldn't eat beef suet.

Delia’s with the vegetarian suet. Just mixed ours all to soak overnight!
