Mince pie with beetroot
The mince pie is also known as the Christmas pie. This vegetarian mince pie is beetroot-based, which is a delicious combination with the dried fruit and citrus in the recipe. To turn this recipe into a vegan mince pie, replace the butter with vegetable butter and use store-bought vegan sour cream for the dough.
