Mince Pies

Today i have been getting into the festive season. i decided to have a try at making mince pies and it went well. they are so easy to make. simply mix 8oog of flour to 400g mix to breadcrumbs, all a little water to make into a dough, roll out thin and using 2 different sized cutters cut out 24 of each, the bigger one for the bottoms and the smaller ones for the tops. put the bigger ones in a fairycake tin, put in a small teaspoon of mince into each one and put the smaller cut dough on top . brush all with milk and pop in the oven for 20 minutes.
