Pastry Wash

    2 Ready Rolled Puff Pastry Sheets
  • Place the lids on top of the mincemeat and gently press them into the sides of the base.
    If you're using a star or snowflake cutter, carefully place the lids in the centre of the mincemeat.
  • Lightly brush egg over the pastry and sprinkle with sugar.
    3 tsp Demerara Sugar, 1 Egg
  • Bake in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until puffed up and golden brown.
