Spoon the warm mincemeat into sterilised jars (see our video for how to sterilise jars), then press a disc of waxed paper on top, seal and store somewhere cool for several months. This recipe won’t keep as long as one containing suet as the butter may spoil.
You can freeze the baked and cooled mince pies in an airtight container for up to 1 month. Defrost fully, then refresh in a warm oven to serve.
