Assembling the mince pie:
OC/220 fan.
Working with one ball at a time, roll out the pasty and make 12 circles and fit them into the muffin tin.
Spoon a generous amount of mincemeat into each pie.
Make the lids using either a cookie cutter to cover the whole pie or a Christmas cookie cutter, Stacey likes using a star or snowflake.
Then brush egg wash on the rim of the pie and stitch the edges of the lid down.
Brush the top of the pie with egg wash and place them in the oven.
They will take around 15 minutes to cook and then leave to cool slightly before removing them from the tin.
