Mince Pies made with Belgian Beer

We love mince pies, but we have one major criticism about most of them. They just aren't sticky enough. With some deliciously crispy pastry, all mince pies should have a rich and moist filling but most many bakers let you down with bitty, pithy centres.

This recipe though, guarantees a wickedly thick and caramelly filling with some boozy warmth and lots of sweetness to complement the slightly tangy, bitter fruits that make mince meat so divisive. It's a brilliant bit of baking from Bee's Bakery and the Craft Beer Channel.
