Easy to make, I can't personally comment on the taste as I am not a fan of mincemeat although it was loved by my men. I used Robinson's mincemeat that I purchased from Worldmarket and shredded the apples rather than chopped. Looked and smelt like the typical christmas pies we had back at home.

The men in my family really loved this pie, I served it warm with vanilla ice cream. Next time I will use a cooking apple rather then the Fugi I had on hand. I added about one tablespoon of flour to thicken the apple mixture after cooking it.
We liked this pie a lot. The apple cuts down on the intensity of the mincemeat.
I love to add lots of apples to the jarred mincemeat for pies but no additional white sugar is needed. Nuts & a little liquor add flavor also !! + those spices
I made this pie for two friends for Christmas and they loved it! The only changes I made were only used two gala apples and no nutmeg. One friend wants more mincemeat, less apples and doesn't like nutmeg. This worked perfectly.
The 1st time I made this I followed the recipe exactly but that left me with 1/3 of a jar of the mincemeat left over. The next time I increased the apples and used the remaining mincemeat. It was really good. I think in the future I will make 2 pies out of the 1 jar (cut back on the recommended amount to about 1.5 cups- or 1/2 jar) and it should be perfect.
