Modern Mincemeat for Pie image

This is a meatless mincemeat that is a little sweeter than the old fashioned variety with meat. This recipe makes 1 pie and the "curing" for the mincemeat is not included in the prep time. I made this mincemeat for a pie and it has a wonderful mincemeat flavor although I found it to be a little dry. Next time I will add the the juice from one orange to this or some apple juice.

I'm not sure about the mincemeat, but the pie crust looks amazing.

This recipe was a disaster! The mincemeat was bland and the pie crust was tough. I won't be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of mincemeat pie, but this recipe was actually pretty good. The mincemeat was flavorful and the pie crust was flaky. I would definitely make it again.

The mincemeat was delicious, but the pie crust was a little dry. I think I'll try using a different recipe for the pie crust next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pie turned out great. The mincemeat was moist and flavorful, and the pie crust was flaky and golden brown. I will definitely be making this again.

This is the best mincemeat pie recipe I've ever tried. It's so easy to make and the results are always amazing. The mincemeat is packed with flavor and the pie crust is perfectly flaky.
