Method
step 1
Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line a baking tray with parchment. Unwrap the croissant dough and separate the triangles.
step 2
Cut half the marzipan into small cubes and put 3-4 along the shorter edge of each triangle. Spoon 2 tsp mincemeat into the centre of each triangle and grate a little fresh nutmeg over each pastry.
step 3
Starting from the shorter edge lined with the marzipan, gently roll up the triangles and curl them slightly into croissant shapes. Arrange on the prepared tray.
step 4
Grate the remaining marzipan over the top of the croissants and scatter with the flaked almonds. Bake for 12-15 mins, until golden. Leave to cool a little before serving, dusted with icing sugar.
