A new twist on the old classic of the fruit crumble, but using that Christmas staple, mincemeat, as a base.

Ingredients:

450g mincemeat (either commercial or you can make your own Damson and Cobnut Mincemeat or traditional mincemeat
300g tinned sliced peaches
110g flour
50g margarine
50g ground almonds
50g demerara sugar
glacé cherries

Method:

Sift the flour into a bowl and rub-in the margarine until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add the ground almonds and sugar and mix to combine. Place the mincemeat in the base of an oven-proof dish and cover with the drained sliced peaches (reserve 8 peach slices for decoration).

Top the dish with the crumble mixture and bake for about 25 minutes in an oven pre-heated to 200°C (400°F/Gas Mark 6), or until the crumble is golden brown.

Decorate with the reserved peach slices and glacé cherries and serve hot with custard.
