The Secret Ingredient that makes my Low Carb Christmas Mince Pies VERY Low Carb. Mincemeat is obviously the key element of mince pies. But many low-carb recipes for mincemeat involve a lot of berries and nuts, which means… extra carbs.
With a buttery, flaky almond flour shortcrust pastry and a low carb mincemeat filling, these Keto mince pies are the essence of a proper low carb Christmas! My whole family LOVES mince pies. Especially my daughter goes crazy for them.
Put 1½ tbsp mincemeat mixture into each. Brush the edge of each pie with a little beaten egg. Re-roll out the pastry to cut 7cm lids and press them on top to seal. Glaze with the beaten egg, sprinkle with the extra caster sugar, then make a small cut in the tops. Bake the mince pies for 15-20 mins until golden brown.
The combination of the sticky dried fruit and the Christmas spices in the mincemeat and the buttery, flaky shortcrust pastry is quite irresistible. However, the amount of sugar and carbs a supermarket mince pie contains is eye-watering, however little they are.
