Mincemeat - what could I do with a jar of it?

I found a jar of nice mincemeat from last Christmas and I was looking for ideas of what I could make with it please (excluding the obvious mince pies)? I wondered if anyone makes anything particularly nice from
scratch with mincemeat.

Mincemeat loaf is delicious and so easy

Mincemeat slice using this recipe. whitworths.co.uk/recipes/date-crumble-slice/
Omit the dates, use a couple tablespoons of mince. Don't compact the base too much. Delicious!

I love mincemeat slices.

Use a crumble mix and press half of it into the bottom of a lined/oilef flapjack tin and press it down hard so it's a solid flat layer.
Spread a jar of mincemeat over it.
Sprinkle the other half of the crumble mix on top and leave it impressed and crumbly.
Cook for about 20 mins at 180/190 until golden.
Cut into slices once cooled.

They can be frozen too.😊

Impressed?? Unpressed 😄

Equivelnt to squashed fly biscuits but with mincemeat. Very flat, very thin layer of mincemeat. Easy peasy and yum.

Delia has lots of suggestions.

I like an apple and mincemeat crumble but I’m going to try these Delia Mincemeat slices right now

Spread over cooking apples, add crumble topping and bake. Lashings of custard.

I was gonna say add to crumble too. Stick it in your porridge as well. With brandy butter. 😁

Ice cream!

HannahDefoesTrenchcoat · 24/10/2022 16:43

I can confirm that Delia’s mincemeat slices are delicious. Mince pie meets flapjack but light. Made with spelt flour and oats so healthy right? 😉

Stir a spoonful into porridge.

Mix 1/2 the jar into a cheesecake. It's delicious!

GettingStuffed · 24/10/2022 20:01

I'm tempted to vtry it in Queen off puddings, putting cinnamon in the custard a layer of mincemeat then the meringue. Problem is I'm the only one that likes it all

Fudge!

RockingMyFiftiesNot · 24/10/2022 20:26

this , using mincemeat in the middle instead of raspberries.

Lovely with the raspberries and a raspberry coulis at the right time of year too.
Such a quick recipe to make which is a bonus.

Abra1t · 24/10/2022 20:28

Stir into a good quality vanilla ice cream with the alcohol of your choice. Mincemeat ice cream.

Sisisimone · 24/10/2022 20:53

Mincemeat fudge 😋

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 25/10/2022 18:09

Mincemeat and apple pie - a layer of MM with apple on top.

Or a crumble - about a 1/3 MM to 2/3 apple.

Awumminnscotland · 27/10/2022 07:13

Mincemeat strudel. Simple and lovely and looks good. Delia smith

FeralWitch · 27/10/2022 07:17

I’ve been making this crumble for years, it’s delicious.
