Mia's mincemeat Swirls




Another recipe from the Kids Cooking Company you can find it on thier website alongside some other delicious recipes or in thier Children’s Recipe Book entitled ‘Truly Scrumptious’! (trust me its a great buy packed with yummy ideas)
I am going to try this recipe out Christmas morning a great alternative to cinnammon swirls or croissants...
Makes 20-25
Prep 5 min
Cooks 6-10 mins 



Ingredients
1/2 Packet puff pastry
1 Jar Mincemeat
1 Beaten egg
Icing Sugar for decoration 

Equipment
Rolling pin
Pastry brush
Sharp knife
Baking tray
Baking parchment
Fork or whisk

Method

1.Preheat the oven to gas mark 6 / 200c. Roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle shape. Spread a thin layer of mincemeat over the puff pastry and bring the two sides in (left & right) to meet in the middle.

2.Roll out again, try to keep to a rectangle shape. Spread more mincement over the middle of the puff pastry

3. Fold the 2 sides to meet in the middle, brush some egg down the side to help it stick and cut into 1/4 inch wide strips. Brush the rest of the egg over to give a golden glaze!

4. Put on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and cook for 6/10 min. When they are cool you could sprinkle with some icing sugar to look like snow!
