Mincemeat Pie Filling

Mincemeat Pie Filling

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. 90% ground beef
• 3/4 tsp. salt
• 3 cups apple, peeled and chopped
• 1/3 cup pressed refined coconut oil or butter
• 3/4 cup apple cider
• 1 1/2 Tbsp. nutmeg
• 1/2 Tbsp. cinnamon
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1/2 cup dried golden raisins
• 1 double pie crust recipe, prepared

Directions:

1. Brown the meat in a saucepan over medium heat and add the salt to the meat.
2. In a large bowl, combine chopped apples, refined coconut oil, cider, spices and fruit. Add the beef and apple cider and mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
3. Line a 9-inch pie plate with your favorite pie pastry recipe. Pour the mincemeat filling inside, spreading it evenly, and then put on the top crust. Seal the crust around the edge with a fork and cut little slivers in the middle to let out steam.
4. Bake in a 400 F oven for about 45 minutes, or until the crust looks golden brown.
