An English Christmas, Christmas Photo Challenge #20

30 day Christmas photography challenge full of festive wholesomeness.

20. Minced Pies

Last holiday Season, Neal and I shopped at one of our favorite stores, The Fresh Market because they stocked many traditional English, British holiday products we had wanting to try. 

At the top of that list was Mince Meat. 

I always wondered what mince meat was, where it originated and why the “English” wanted it “in a pie” and “why at Christmas?“ 

After a bit of research and reading, I was ready for my attempt at this famed dessert. A Minced Pie. And yet, would I actually eat a whole pie? It is just thee two of us.

I decided tarts may be a better fit. 

I was pleasantly surprised with my finished pastries, ice cream added to the overall enjoyment of the warm mini-pies.

Next year, I delve into Figgy Pudding.

Christmas through the Years!
