Eccles Cakes
Makes 12 small
3 sheets of pre-rolled puff pastry
1 egg
caster sugar
30 grams butter
1 cup currants
2 Tbsp mixed peel
2 Tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp mixed spice
Preheat oven to 180 deg C or 360 F. Place butter, currants, finely
chopped mixed peel, sugar and spices in a saucepan, stir over low
heat until butter melts, remove, allow to cool. Cut pastry into
10 cm rounds with plain cutter. Place heaped teaspoonfuls of
filling in centre of rounds. Draw the edges of pastry rounds up
together to enclose fully (like a bag). Turn over, smooth side up
on lightly floured board, flatten with rolling pin so that currents
just show through pastry. Shape into ovals. Place on greased oven
tray, brush with lightly beaten eggs, sprinkle with caster sugar.
Make 3 cuts across the top of each (vertical and parallel). Bake
for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
