Tips:

  • Use a deep 9-inch pie dish to ensure the filling doesn't spill over during baking.
  • For a flaky pie crust, use a combination of butter and shortening. Keep the ingredients cold and work quickly to prevent the butter from melting and making the dough tough.
  • If you don't have time to make your own mincemeat, you can use a store-bought variety. Just be sure to choose one that is made with good quality ingredients and has a mincemeat to suet ratio of at least 2:1.
  • To prevent the custard from curdling, temper the eggs by slowly whisking them with a small amount of the hot milk before adding them to the rest of the custard mixture.
  • To ensure the pie is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of the custard filling. If it comes out clean, the pie is done.
