Description

Indulge in the cozy flavors of the holidays with this delectable Vegan Thanksgiving Pot Pie. Packed with tender vegetables, plant-based protein, and a flaky, golden crust, this dish is a true plant-based masterpiece that the whole family will love.


Ingredients

– 2 cups all-purpose flour

– 1 teaspoon salt

– 3/4 cup cold vegan butter, cubed

– 1/4 cup ice water

– 2 tablespoons olive oil

– 1 onion, diced

– 3 cloves garlic, minced

– 2 carrots, peeled and diced

– 2 celery stalks, diced

– 1 cup diced mushrooms

– 1 cup frozen peas

– 1 cup cooked lentils or plant-based meat crumbles

– 2 cups vegetable broth

– 2 tablespoons cornstarch

– 1 teaspoon dried thyme

– 1 teaspoon dried sage

– Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

1. In a food processor, combine the flour and salt. Add the cold vegan butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Slowly add the ice water and pulse until the dough just comes together. Divide the dough into two equal discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

2. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

3. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 5 minutes until translucent. Add the garlic, carrots, celery, and mushrooms, and continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender.

4. In a small bowl, whisk together the vegetable broth and cornstarch until the cornstarch is dissolved. Pour the broth mixture into the skillet with the vegetables, then stir in the peas, lentils or plant-based meat, thyme, and sage. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.

5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one of the dough discs into a circle slightly larger than your pie dish. Gently transfer the dough to the pie dish, pressing it into the sides and bottom. Pour the vegetable filling into the crust.

6. Roll out the remaining dough disc and place it over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal and cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

7. Bake the pot pie for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Allow the pie to cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For a flakier crust, you can use a combination of vegan butter and shortening. You can also customize the filling with your favorite vegetables or plant-based proteins. This pot pie can be made ahead of time and refrigerated or frozen for later use.
