If you’ve ever wondered why anyone would go to the trouble of making their own mince pies, you’ve now found a very good answer to that conundrum. These fruity mince pies not only include the mouthwatering M&S Collection Brandy & Clementine Mincemeat, but have the very welcome addition of fresh blueberries and orange. Plus, they only take 10 minutes to prepare, followed by 20 minutes in the oven. There’s never really a bad time to eat mince pies, but when you’ve actually made them yourself, we suggest serving mouth-wateringly warm from the oven. As an alternative to cream or brandy butter, you could serve with our Easy-peasy Salted-caramel Ice Cream.

- 300g mincemeat
- 150g blueberries
- 1 orange , grated zest
- 1 egg, beaten
Method

Step 7
