Name: Maple Pecan Mincemeat Pie
Ingredients: 4 oz Tempeh; 2 Apples, peeled, cored, diced; 1/2 c Raisins; 1/2 c Currants; 1/2 c Dates, chopped; 1/3 c Pecans, chopped; 1/2 c Maple syrup; 1/2 c Orange juice; 1 tb Orange peel, grated; 1 ts Cinnamon; 1/2 ts Mace; 1 2/3 c Wholewheat pastry flour; 1/4 c Oil; 1/4 c Orange juice

I go further and say that there is a great need in the contemporary world for more Christian anger. We human beings compromise with sin in a way in which God never does. In the face of blatant evil we should be indignant not tolerant, angry, not apathetic. If God hates sin, His people should hate sin too. If evil arouses His anger, it should arouse ours too. What other reaction can wickedness be expected to provoke in those who love God?

INSTRUCTIONS

MINCEMEAT FILLING
PIE CRUST
FILLING: Steam tempeh for 20 minutes, then either shred or dice finely.
Stir into the remaining ingredients in a large saucepan. Bring to a simmer
& cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat & set aside
to cool.
CRUST: Pre-heat oven to 400F.  Combine all the pie crust ingredients until
a soft dough is formed.  Add more juice if necessary. Divide into 2 pieces,
one slightly larger than the other.  Place larger ball of dough onto a
lightly floured surface & roll into a 9" circle. Place into an 8" pie
plate.
Spoon filling into the pie crust.  Roll out remaining ball of dough & place
on top of the filling.  Seal & crimp the edges.  Bake for 10 minutes & then
reduce the heat to 325F & bake until the crust is lightly browned, about 30
minutes.  Cool & serve.
