Mini Mince Pies

 

Makes about 10 'balls'.

 

Ingredients

 

• 35g blanched almonds

• 25g walnuts

• 50g dates

• 20g sweetened cranberries

• 50g apricots

• Grated clementine zest

• 1/4 tsp cinnamon

• 50g dark chocolate

• 20g white chocolate

• A few dried cranberries for garnish

 

Method

 

Simply place the blanched almonds, walnuts, dates, cranberries, apricots, grated clementine and cinnamon into a blender and blitz until the mixtures comes together and forms a dough.

 

Roll the dough into balls (it should make about 10).

 

Place the balls onto some non-stick baking parchment.

 

Melt the dark and white chocolate separately. Drizzle a little dark chocolate onto each mini mince pie and then carefully spoon a small amount of the white chocolate on the top (see photo as a guide). Garnish with a dried cranberry and allow to cool and set.
