Vegan Chicken Pot Pie

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Vegan Chicken Pot Pie.

1. Step 1

   To start your delicious vegetable pie, grab a saucepan and toss in the diced carrots, peas, corn, and celery along with a chicken-flavored bouillon cube.

2. Step 2

   Pour in just enough water to cover those vibrant veggies and bring everything to a gentle boil over medium heat.

3. Step 3

   Let them cook until they’re fork-tender, which should take about 3 to 5 minutes.

4. Step 4

   Once they’re ready, drain the vegetables and set them aside, letting their flavors mingle while you prepare the rest.

5. Step 5

   Next, preheat your oven to a cozy 425°F (220°C) so it’s nice and warm when your pie is ready to bake.

6. Step 6

   In a skillet, warm up a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

7. Step 7

   Add in the chopped onion and sauté it until it becomes translucent and soft, which should take around 5 minutes.

8. Step 8

   The aroma will start to fill your kitchen, making it hard to resist! Now, stir in some flour along with the remaining olive oil, celery salt, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

9. Step 9

   Gradually pour in the vegetarian chicken-flavored broth and almond milk, then reduce the heat to low.

10. Step 10

    Keep stirring frequently as the sauce thickens, which should take about 5 to 8 minutes.

11. Step 11

    You’ll know it’s ready when it’s creamy and luscious.

12. Step 12

    With your filling ready, it’s time to assemble the pie.

13. Step 13

    Place the bottom crust in a 9-inch pie plate and layer the cooked vegetables and diced seitan evenly over it.

14. Step 14

    Pour that thickened sauce generously on top, then cover everything with the top crust.

15. Step 15

    Don’t forget to seal the edges well and cut 4 to 5 large vent holes in the top crust to let the steam escape—this will help keep your pie from getting soggy.

16. Step 16

    Now, pop your pie into the preheated oven and let it bake for 30 to 35 minutes.

17. Step 17

    Keep an eye on it; if the edges of the crust start to brown too quickly, just cover them with a bit of foil.

18. Step 18

    The goal is a beautifully golden crust with bubbling filling that will make your mouth water.

19. Step 19

    Once it’s baked to perfection, take the pie out of the oven and let it cool for about 10 to 15 minutes.

20. Step 20

    This waiting time will allow the flavors to settle and make it easier to slice.

21. Step 21

    When you finally serve it, you’ll be greeted with a warm, comforting dish that’s sure to impress family and friends alike.
