For some reason, I got a hankering for mincemeat pie which I hadn’t had since I was a little kid at my grandmother’s at Christmas. So I made it for our Christmas dessert! I just used jarred filling, but did make the crust using the Classic Pie Crust from the Cook Illustrated Baking Cookbook.
It was a great opportunity to use a wee tree cookie cutter!
I highly recommend that pie recipe as it has never steered me wrong. That said, I spread it out over two days… and pre-cut the fats and chill them even another night before.
