Ingredients

    Stichelton mince pies:
  • 1 pack pre-rolled shortcrust pastry
  • 1 jar classic mincemeat
  • 80–100 gStichelton, crumbled (or Stilton)
  • small handful walnuts, roughly chopped
  • plain flour, for rolling/dusting

Rich spiced fruit and buttery pastry taken to whole new level with the addition of tangy, crumbled Stichelton cheese, creating a perfectly balanced festive bite that’s familiar, surprising, and very moreish.

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 190°C. Unroll the shortcrust pastry and use a cutter to stamp out circles. Line a mince pie tin with the pastry.
  • Spoon the classic mincemeat into each case, filling about three-quarters full. Crumble a little Stichelton over the mincemeat, then scatter over a few chopped walnuts.
  • Cut smaller circles or stars from the remaining pastry and place on top, sealing the edges lightly.
  • Bake for around 20 minutes until the pastry is golden.
  • Leave to cool slightly before serving warm or at room temperature.
