Prep Time
This pot pie recipe is relatively easy to make and only takes about 30 minutes of prep time. You’ll need to pre-cook the vegetables and make the sauce first, but that can all be done in advance. You can also make the crust ahead of time, which will save you even more time.
Cook Time
This recipe requires about 45 minutes of baking time. The time may vary depending on the size of the pot pie and your oven. You can check on the pot pie periodically to make sure it’s not overcooking. The crust should be golden brown and the filling should be bubbling.
Ingredients
For the crust:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup cold butter, cut into cubes
- 1/4 cup ice water
For the filling:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 carrots, peeled and chopped
- 2 cups frozen peas
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. To make the crust, combine the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the ice water and mix until the dough comes together. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and roll out to a 12-inch circle. Place the dough in a 9-inch pie dish and trim the edges.
3. To make the filling, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms, carrots, and peas and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the flour and cook for 1 minute. Add the broth, coconut milk, and thyme and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
4. Pour the filling into the pie dish and spread it evenly. Cover the filling with the crust, crimping the edges. Cut several slits in the top of the crust to allow steam to escape. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Equipment
This recipe requires a few basic kitchen tools. You’ll need a large bowl, a rolling pin, a 9-inch pie dish, a large skillet, and a spatula.
Notes
This pot pie recipe can easily be made gluten-free. Simply substitute the all-purpose flour for a gluten-free flour blend. You can also use any type of vegetable broth for this recipe. For a vegan option, use a vegan butter and replace the coconut milk with a non-dairy milk.
