Mince Pie Bars with Streusel Topping

Mince Pie Bars with Streusel Topping

A one tin bake to change up a classic individual mince pie into a whole 'traybake'. This is fabulous for smaller or larger portions than the classic, and looks great served after dinner or as a cosy movie night snack! No mixer and only a few ingredients are needed for this bake.

Ingredients

For the Shortcrust Pastry (or use 350g store bought)

  • 220 g Plain Flour
  • 100 g Unsalted Butter Cold & Cubed
  • 6 tbsp Cold Water

For the Filling

  • 400-500 g Mincemeat See notes

For the Streusel

  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 4 tbs Plain Flour
  • 4 tbsp Light Brown Soft Sugar
  • 4 tbsp Rolled Oats

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 5. Line an 8" square baking tray.
  • If making your own, make the pastry. Combine the butter and flour, either using your fingers to 'rub together' or by placing in a food processor and combining until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. 
  • Add the water until the mixture comes together to form a ball. Chill 10 mins in the fridge while the oven gets hot. 
  • In a bowl, combine all the streusel ingredients using a fork to form a sand-like texture.
  • Roll the pastry on a lightly floured surface to about 1/2 inch thick. Place into the lined tin, pushing into all the corners. Spread over the mincemeat in an even layer. Sprinkle over the streusel topping.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the pastry and streusel are crisp and golden. Remove and serve warm with ice cream or let cool!
