CRANBERRY MINCEMEAT TARTS
These tarts are nowhere on Zaar.The recipe came from a baking for entertainment leaflet. I think they would be nice at Christmas. I made the tarts but next time I am going to make into a pie. These also freeze beautifully. If you have the orange liqueur please use it.

- Remove from heat.
- Grate orange zest, peel orange and chop segments.
- Add orange zest, chopped orange and liqueur.
- Spoon into tart shells and place on baking sheet.
- Fill pie shell and use top crust or make fancy cut-outs with pastry.
- Bake in preheated 400°F oven for about 20 minutes or until pastry is golden.
- For pie bake for about 35 minutes.
- I can only fit 1 pie and 1 sheet of tarts at a time in my oven so cooking time includes the 2nd pan of tarts while pie is still cooking.
Tips:
- For the perfect pastry, use a combination of butter and lard, and make sure it's nice and cold before you start working with it.
- Don't overwork the pastry, as this will make it tough.
- Chill the pastry for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help to prevent it from shrinking in the oven.
- Use a sharp knife to cut out the pastry circles, as this will help to prevent them from tearing.
- Don't overfill the pastry cases, as this will make them soggy.
- Bake the tarts until they are golden brown and the mincemeat is bubbling.
- Serve the tarts warm with a dollop of cream or ice cream.
Conclusion:
Cranberry mincemeat tarts are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for Christmas. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their sweet and tangy filling and flaky pastry, these tarts are sure to be a hit at your next holiday party.
