Ingredients

  • 3 sheets phyllo pastry
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • Filling:
  • 2/3 cup prepared mincemeat
  • 2/3 cup finely diced peeled cored tart apples
  • 1 tsp grated orange rind
  • Topping:
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp packed brown sugar
  • 3 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon

Preparation

Lightly grease 24 mini muffin or tart tins; set aside.

Place 1 sheet of phyllo on work surface, covering remainder with damp towel to prevent drying out. Lightly brush with some of the butter; sprinkle with 1 tsp (5 mL) of the sugar.

Top with second sheet; brush with butter and sprinkle with sugar. Repeat with remaining sheet. Cut lengthwise into 4 strips; cut crosswise into 6 strips to make 24 squares. Press each square into prepared cup.

Filling: In bowl, combine mincemeat, diced apple and grated orange rind; spoon heaping 1 tsp (5 mL) into each basket.

Topping: In small bowl, combine flour, sugar, butter and cinnamon; crumble over filling. Bake in centre of 350°F (180°C) oven until baskets are golden and crisp, about 30 minutes.

Let stand in pan on rack for 5 minutes; transfer to rack and let cool slightly. (Make-ahead: Let cool completely. Store between layers of waxed paper in airtight container for up to 2 days.)
