Mincemeat Crumble Bars
Delicious mincemeat crumble bars are a great alternative to mince pies and are an ideal traybake recipe for leftover mincemeat. There's a buttery oat crumble on the top and bottom, with a thick layer of Christmas mincemeat filling in the middle. Mincemeat crumble slices are quick and easy to make and can be gluten free and vegan if preferred.
Equipment
- 20 x 20cm baking tray
- baking paper
Ingredients
- 350 g mincemeat
- 240 g oats
- 100 g butter
- 60 ml honey
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 160 degrees (140 fan). Line a 20 x 20cm baking tin with baking parchment. Make sure the paper comes up the sides of the tin so that the mincemeat doesn't stick.
- Melt the butter and honey in a large saucepan. As soon as it's melted, remove from the heat.
- Stir the oats into the butter mixture and stir well so that all the oats are thoroughly coated.
- Spoon half of the oat mixture into the lined baking tin. Spread over the base of the tin, and press down firmly with the back of a spoon. Make sure there are no gaps otherwise the mincemeat will seep through.
- Spread the mincemeat evenly onto the oat base.
- Add the remaining half of the crumble mixture onto the mincemeat. Carefully spread it across the surface. Press down with the back of a spoon so that the mixture is compacted. This will ensure that the crumble bars hold together.
- Bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool in the tin.
- Remove the cooled mincemeat crumble bars from the tin and cut into 12 slices.
