Mince pies topped with meringue are a delicious twist on the traditional British Christmas treat. The pies consist of a sweet and spicy filling made from dried fruits, mixed with suet and spices, all encased in a buttery pastry shell. The meringue topping is made from whipped egg whites and sugar, which are lightly browned in the oven to create a crisp outer layer. The combination of the sweet and tangy mincemeat filling with the light and fluffy meringue topping creates a perfect balance of flavours and textures that are sure to delight your taste buds.
