Instructions:

1. Prepare Pie Crust:
  • In a food processor, pulse the flour, salt, and vegan butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Add ice water gradually, pulsing until the dough comes together.
  • Divide the dough into two disks, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
2. Make Filling:
  • In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and garlic, sauté until softened.
  • Add diced potatoes, carrots, thyme, and rosemary. Stir for 2-3 minutes.
  • Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir to coat.
  • Gradually pour in vegetable broth and almond milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
  • Add chickpeas and frozen peas. Simmer until the mixture thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Preheat Oven:
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
4. Assemble Pot Pie:
  • Roll out one of the chilled pie crusts and line a pie dish. Pour in the chickpea and potato filling.
  • Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling. Seal and crimp the edges. Cut slits on top to allow steam to escape.
5. Bake:
  • Place the pot pie in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
6. Serve:
  • Allow the pot pie to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy the comforting flavors.
7. Store:
  • Any leftover pot pie can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for best results.
