If you have been reading my page for any length of time you will know that at this time of year I try to get in as many Mincemeat goodies that I can.
By that I mean prepared mincemeat. The fruity Christmas kind that comes in a jar, ready for you to pop into tarts and whatnot. I do not mean ground meat, lest you be confused.
The other day I saw a recipe on this page which used refrigerated biscuits which they had stuffed with chocolate chips. They looked really good, quick, easy and delicious.
The wheels in my head started turning and I thought to myself, why can’t you stuff them with mincemeat? Surely that would be delicious!
At this time of year, I am game to stuff mincemeat into just about anything!
I proceeded to do just that and was really pleased with the end results. I ended up with fluffy buttery biscuits, filled with a lovely fruity spiced filling.
Glazed sweetly with a vanilla glaze, and I added some holiday sprinkles to dress them up a bit. You, of course would not really need to do this, but I wanted them to stand out a bit for the holidays!
This is the perfect recipe for a holiday bread to use for Christmas morning. Most of us will be preparing a big dinner later in the day and we don’t really want to spend a lot of time on breakfast, but a lot of us will also have a houseful of people. (Yay!)
This is the type of thing that is perfect for Christmas morning. Quick and easy to make and very festive. Perfect to enjoy with a hot cup of whatever while people are opening their gifts, or to be used as a part of a much larger holiday brunch.
I can see these being perfectly at home served alongside of crisp bacon curls, juicy sausages, scrambled eggs and whatnot! All you need on the side is some fresh fruit or fruit juice and hot java or tea!
Kind of like a very festive Danish, but in a round shape. Perfect for enjoying when you have all the family around.
WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE QUICK & EASY CHRISTMAS MORNING ROLLS
If you are like you, you probably already have everything in the house to make these today. If not, a quick trip to the store can easily rectify that!
1 can (10 count) refrigerated biscuits (in the UK, see note below)
10 tsp. prepared mincemeat
1/2 cup (65g) sifted icing sugar
few drops vanilla
1 TBS of milk
You can use the larger kind of refrigerator biscuit dough, but you may need slightly more filling and you won’t get as many rolls of course as there are only 8 in a package.
If you are in the UK, you will most likely not be able to find the refrigerated biscuit/roll dough. I have provided an adequate solution in the recipe notes.
You can also use refrigerated croissant dough in its place. Roll out completely. Press the perforations shut and cut into 10 evenly sized squares and proceed as per the recipe.
I used a good quality store brand Mincemeat that I purchased online. Feel free to use homemade if you have it. I wish that I did. Homemade is always infinitely better.
Don’t be tempted to overdo the glaze. This is the perfect quantity for this number of rolls. I did add some festive sprinkles to dress them up a bit for the holidays, but this is by no means necessary.
HOW TO MAKE QUICK & EASY CHRISTMAS MORNING ROLLS
When I say nothing could be easier, I am not kidding. These are quick to make and very simple as well.
Preheat your oven to 350*F/180*C/gas mark 4. Butter a 9-inch round baking dish.
Open the can of biscuit dough and separate the biscuits.
Flatten the biscuits slightly and place a teaspoon of mincemeat in the center of each. Bring the sides of the biscuit up to cover the mincemeat completely, pinching shut.
Place into the prepared baking dish, seam side down.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, until cooked through and golden brown. Leave to cook for 15 minutes.
Whisk together the icing sugar, vanilla and enough milk to give you a thick drizzle icing. Drizzle this over the warm buns decoratively.
Serve immediately. Best eaten on the day.
Don’t be tempted to overfill these rolls. A heaped teaspoon is the perfect amount. Any more than that you risk a blow out and this will mean that your rolls will be more likely to stick to your dish and be difficult to remove.
Isn’t that cute? Just the perfect size and as you can see below the perfect amount of filling. These are so delicious, you may actually want to double the recipe as people are sure to want more than one!
You have been warned!
If you are keen on cooking something special for your family for breakfast on Christmas morning, you may also want to take a look at these options:
SAVORY BREAKFAST BAKE – A delicious layer of flaky croissants, egg, sausage and mushrooms that you can make up the night before and then bake on the morning. I believe another name for it is Christmas Morning Wife Saver.
BACON & EGG MCMUFFIN CASSEROLE – A delicious breakfast casserole made with torn English muffins, crisp bacon, and an egg custard. This really does taste like a Bacon & Egg McMuffin from you know where!
