I wasn't actually planning on making my own Christmas Mincemeat recipe, but when I published my Festive Mincemeat Tart a few weeks ago it became apparent that a lot of people aren't really sure what it is or how to use it. As a Brit, I've grown up eating mincemeat in Vegan Mince Pies and other baked goods every Christmas and I didn't realize that it wasn't as widespread here in Canada or the U. Although the mince is long gone from most Mince Pies these days, they often aren't vegan due to the butter in the crust, and because the fat most often used to make the mincemeat is a beef suet.
