Ingredients

For The Pastry

8.8 ounces Plain Flour (plus extra to dust)
1 Orange Zest (grated)
1 Egg (lightly beaten)
0.88 ounces Icing Sugar
4.4 ounces Unsalted Butter (chilled, diced finely)
3 teaspoons Ice-cold Water (if needed)

Filling (Mincemeat)

16 ounces Pink Lady Apples (peeled and grated)
8 ounces Suet
8 ounces Dried Apricots (diced)
16.7 ounces Golden Raisins
12 ounces Dark Soft Brown Sugar
2 Oranges (zest and juice)
2 Lemons (zest and juice)
2 ounces Almonds (nibbed)
1/4 teaspoon Allspice (ground)
1/4 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
3 ounces Brandy
2 ounces Dark Rum

Instructions

Take a large bowl and add pink lady apples, suet, golden raisins, diced dried apricots, brown sugar, orange zest, and orange juice. Mix them well to combine. Now, add lemon zest along with lemon juice, nibbed almonds, ground allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, brandy, and dark rum.
Mix them until smooth and a little runny. Cover it with a lid and then refrigerate it for about 30 minutes. Brush the pastry in the mince tin with egg wash and pour in the mincemeat.
Place the star-sharped dough on top and brush it with the egg wash. Bake it in the preheated oven (180 C) for about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle some icing sugar and serve.
