Tis the season for warming and delicious Sweet Winter recipes. I have a massive sweet tooth and during Winter, and especially at Christmas, the want for sweet treats and warming bakes grows even bigger. I have rounded up a gorgeous collection of sweet winter recipes from brilliant bloggers to get you into the festive baking spirit.
A Christmas Classic – Mince Pies
Mini Mince Pies
Christmas Mini Mince Pies are small buttery pastry pies filled with a delicious mixture of dried fruit, and warming spices. They are bite-sized versions of the traditional British mince pies that are such a feature of Christmas holiday feasts.
Easy Frangipane Topped Mince Pies
Delicious homemade mince pies topped with frangipane and flaked almonds, these Easy Frangipane Mince Pies look and taste impressive, but are actually super simple to make. (Promise I won’t tell!) What would Christmas be without a mince pie and these have to make it on to the Sweet Winter recipes round up.
