Still have loads of raisins, currants etc left over from Mincemeat

[flier]

I've been making Delia's mincemeat for the first time, I don;t want to make a christmas cake with left over ingredients I have, any suggestions as to what I could do with all this dried fruit? I havecandied peel also....

what about a fruit loaf (not as heavy as a xmas cake and can have it with custard or on its own) or fruit scones

ooh yes thanks i have an old recipe for a lovely fruit loaf. thank you

Can also make little sort of samosas with dried fruit and filo pastry. I think Delia did them ages ago.

eccles cakes

I make currant tarts.

Put a layer of warmed golden syrup on the bottom layer of pastry. Fill with currants, put a pastry lid on top. Glaze with milk and sprinkle with sugar.

Bung in oven about 180 degrees for about half an hour.

Delicious with vanilla icecream (or you can eat a slice cold).

thanks everyone, lots to try out this week now.
