These mince pie biscotti by The Hebridean Baker (Coinneach MacLeod) are studded with pistachios and cranberries and perfect for dunking into your tea or coffee during the festive season. They also make a great, budget-friendly food gift.
Coinneach says: “While I do whip up a few batches of my homemade mincemeat in the festive season, you’ll also find me in the supermarket in January, snagging jars from the discount aisle for mere pennies. These mince pie biscotti will bring a touch of festive cheer, even long after the decorations have been packed away till next year.”
MacLeod brings storytelling, Gaelic flair and, most importantly, big colourful jumpers into the kitchen. Raised on the island of Lewis in Scotland’s Outer Hebrides, he’s written four bestselling cookbooks celebrating the flavours of Scotland and beyond. He’s a frequent guest on This Morning – and his own television show is scheduled to air in 2025. Follow Coinneach on Instagram.
