Utensils Used
| 1. To make the pastry: put the flour and cinnamon into the bowl of a food processor. | 2. Add the butter and pulse until it looks like very fine breadcrumbs. | 3. Sprinkle in the sugar and 3 tbsp cold water, and pulse until the mixture starts to clump together, about 30 secs. | 4. Tip the mixture onto a board and gently squeeze the pastry until it comes together into a ball - add water if it feels dry. | 5. Wrap the pastry in cling film and chill for 30 minutes. | 6. Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5 [For Americans, that's 375 F). | 7. Roll the pastry on a lightly floured surface to the thickness of £1 coin (3.15mm). | 8. Using a 7cm cutter, cut out 10-12 discs and use to line a 12-hole bun tin with them. | 9. Use a 6cm cutter for the lids, or use a 6cm star cutter to make star shapes. | 10. Chill both. | 11. Make the mincemeat: put all the ingredients into a food processor and pulse on and off until evenly chopped. | 12. Spoon 1-2 tsp into each tart, dampen the edge of the pastry bottom with water and sit a smaller pastry disc or star on top. | 13. Using scissors, snip a hole in the lid, if you've made round tops. | 14. Bake for 12-15 mins until golden brown. | 15. Lift onto a wire rack to cool and dredge with icing sugar. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
