Mincemeat Pie

12 ingredients
6 steps

Ingredients

  • 2 lb. ground venison (ground meat from a large game animal works fine)
  • 1 c. water
  • 4 lb. peeled apples, ground
  • 2 lb. raisins
  • 2 c. white sugar
  • 2 c. brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 sticks low-fat margarine
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cloves
  • 1 tsp. pumpkin spice
  • 1/2 tsp. nutmeg
  • 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
  • orange juice

Directions

  1. 1
    Place ground venison and water in large pot. Boil until water is gone.
  2. 2
    Separate meat with fork and add remaining ingredients, using enough orange juice to cover 3/4 of the ingredients. Cook very slowly over low heat until fruit is tender (about 10 minutes).
  3. 3
    Stir frequently to prevent sugar from scorching.
  4. 4
    Make your favorite pie crust and add mince meat filling.
  5. 5
    Cut slits in top crust and sprinkle with sugar. Place in preheated oven 425° and bake 15 minutes.
  6. 6
    Reduce heat to 350° and bake 40 minutes. Serve with ice cream, whipped cream or a wedge of Cheddar cheese. Makes enough for two 9-inch pies.
