Ingredients

  • 1 quantity home-made pastry
  • 700g mincemeat (use ready-made or see know-how)

For the topping

  • 100g plain flour
  • 50g ground almonds
  • 50g caster sugar
  • 135g cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 25g dried cranberries
  • 25g flaked almonds
  • Icing sugar, to dust

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan180°C/gas 6. Thinly roll out 2 quantities of pastry on a floured surface and use to line the base and sides of a 20cm x 27cm rectangular, loose-bottomed, fluted tart tin – you may not need all the pastry.
  2. Prick the base with a fork and fill with baking paper and beans. Blind bake for 10 minutes, then remove the paper and beans and return to the oven for 5 minutes.
  3. Spread the mincemeat over the pastry base. In a bowl, mix plain flour, ground almonds and caster sugar. Rub in the butter, until like crumbs. Stir in dried cranberries and flaked almonds. Scatter over the mincemeat.
  4. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden. Cool and dust with icing sugar.
