Christmas Fruit Mince Pies

Dried fruit soaked in alcohol plays a big part in most sweet Christmas recipes and these fruit mince pies are no exception. At Bourke Street Bakery we use the very buttery paté sablée, which melts in your mouth. These aren’t the type of fruit mince tarts that can sit in your cupboard or refrigerator for weeks leading up to Christmas, although they will keep for up to 5 days in the refrigerator and can be frozen for up to 3 weeks. For best results, bake and eat as soon as the tarts are cool.
