Equipment
- 1 Shallow and wide pot
- 1 Rubber spatula or whisk
- 1 Oven
- 1 Cutting Board
- 1 Chef or chopping knife
- 1 Pastry Brush
Ingredients
- 1 Vegan pie crust
- 3 cups Frozen mixed vegetables (carrots, corn, green beans, peas)
- 1 Onion, small, chopped
- 1 Russet potato, small diced
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups Vegetable stock/broth
- 1 cup Almond milk, unsweetened You can use Oat Milk
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- ½ Teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1 tsp Fresh rosemary
- 1 tsp Fresh thyme
Slurry
- 3 tbsp cornstarch
- 6 tbsp water
Instructions
- Add oil to pot and bring to heat. Cook onions on medium for 2-3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
- Add in mixed vegetables, diced potatoes, vegetable broth, and almond milk. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Add slurry to pot and whisk to incorporate.
- Simmer until thickened, pot pie sauce consistency is reached.
- Roll our pie crust on a clean surface. Using the ramekins, punch out 4 circles to use as covers for your pot pie.
- Brush oil onto the pie crust covers to help achieve a golden brown color and crunchy texture during cooking.
- Fill ramekins with the filling and cover with pie crust. Since this is a kind-friendly recipe, we won’t have a traditional thick crust you’re used to seeing on pot-pies. Instead, we will push the pie crust covers inside the lip of the ramekins.
- Bake in a preheated 425 degree oven for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
- Enjoy!

I made this for Thanksgiving, and it was a winner. I made only a few changes. Instead of using the ramekins, I put it all into one pie pan. I also added about 3.5 ounces of squared pieces of tofu.
What great modifications! Thanks for sharing your substitutions. We are so glad you enjoyed this recipe.
I made this for Thanksgiving in dinner in place of turkey. My husband loved it.
Wonderful! Thanks for taking the time to let us know.
