#ad | Looking for the perfect mince pie recipe? Try these Frangipane Topped Mince Pies from our brand ambassador @nevenmaguire using our Simply Better handmade mincemeat from @foodsofathenry and our shortcrust pastry from @rollit.pastry

Frangipane Topped Mince Pies
Ingredients (Makes 24)
1 Packet Simply Better All Butter Shortcrust Pastry, thawed
Plain Flour, for dusting
1 Jar Simply Better Mincemeat
Flaked almonds, to garnish

For the Frangipane
150g Butter
150g Caster Sugar
3 Simply Better Free Range Corn Fed Large Eggs
150g Ground Almonds
1 Tbsp. Plain Flour
1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
Zest of 1 Lemon

Method
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (375°F/Gas Mark 5). Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured work surface to make a large rectangle, then stamp out 24 x 6cm discs (with a cutter or use a glass) and place in greased muffins tins (of course you can do this in batches).

2. To make the frangipane, combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and whisk with an electric whisk for about one minute until you achieve a soft paste.

3. To assemble, add a large teaspoon of mincemeat into each pastry case then top with a tablespoon of the frangipane mixture. Sprinkle over some flaked almonds and transfer to the oven to bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm or cold with brandy butter or custard.
