Use for Christmas mince pies but also great added to apple pie fillings. Baking it in the oven prevents it from fermenting and gives it a longer shelf life. So far I have kept it for up to 6 months. This is a Delia Smith recipe and I have been using this recipe for a good 20 years now. Also a good gift since it is better then any bought mincemeat!
