Hello everyone, welcome to my latest recipe for Gluten and Dairy Free Iced Mince Pies.
I can’t believe it is now December and I’m sharing my first Christmas recipe of 2020. I don’t have any Christmas decorations up yet – although most of my neighbours do so I’m feeling a bit like the odd one out. I do have my advent calendar – I don’t think I’ll ever grow out of that. I do have a preference for kind of vintage ones with pictures rather than ones with little chocolates or whatever else.
My first Christmas recipe of 2020 is for iced puff pastry mince pies. Every year I like to make at least one batch of homemade mice pies and I like to try something different each year. Last Christmas it was little mincemeat tartlets and the year before that I think it was mince pie bites with a crumble topping. As you can now buy gluten and dairy free puff pastry sheets quite easily in the supermarket I thought I would share a quick and easy recipe for iced mince pies.
