Your mince tart looks lovely with its lattice top. If you are looking for ideas, I've done a couple of desserts with apples and mincemeat that were good. Last year I made an apple and mincemeat tart... http://foodgloriousfood-toto.blogspot.com/2007/11/mincemeat-and-apple-tart.html And once I made a crumble which had apples and mincemeat and nuts in the crumble topping.
