Hi all - in a fit of eagerness I made a load of mincemeat this Xmas, it was really nice but I can’t face more mince pies, also seems all wrong in January. Can anyone suggest any yummy recipes to use it up? Thank you !

You could mix it through stewed apples and have on porridge.

Add to vanilla ice cream and then refreeze...add extra pastry for proper mince pie ice cream!

I don't know how to link (🙈) but if you google it a few good recipes come up!

I make mince meal pinwheels with puff. So simple, place sheet of puff, on some Demerara and apply slight pressure so sugar goes into pastry, spread the unsugared side with mincemeat (leave a border round the edge), roll up like a Swiss roll, slice into rounds and lay on silicon sheet. Apply light egg wash and bake.

You can generally use it wherever you would use raisins or sultanas. I’ve even seen hot cross bun recipes that have mincemeat in them.

I made this allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/24613/easy-mincemeat-fruit-cake.aspx - although I put it in fairy cake cases and adjusted the oven temperature and time to suit.

They went down very well with friends (picnics. In the park were allowed back then, Tier 2). It was also an incredibly easy cake to make.

These mincemeat flapjacks are brilliant, I always have a jar in the cupboard to make some because my lot like them so much hodgepodgedays.co.uk/recipe/mincemeat-flapjack/
