Beef and Vegetable Potpie
I’ve always loved Potpies. They’re one of those comfort foods that I can eat almost daily. 🙂 For this particular recipe, I used a Homemade Pie Crust with Butter and also tossed in a batch of Apple Butter Pie Crust Cinnamon Rolls. I served it with Cheesy Mexican Cornbread. Oh my. I loved this meal.

Beef and Vegetable Potpie includes stew beef seasoned with Montreal Steak seasoning, potatoes, carrots, green beans, corn and peas in a scrumptious beefy broth and wrapped up in a flaky, delicious pastry. This recipe makes three 9-inch pies. I made two with a full crust on top. I made another with two miniature pie plates and used a lattice crust over top of the smaller potpies.
Every bite was drool worthy. If you enjoy hearty and satisfying meals, this one is terrific. If you don’t have time to make your own pie crust, use store bought crust instead. You’ll need four total. I kid you not, this savory and sumptuous potpie will rock your world. Yum.
Beef and Vegetable Potpie is spectacular. It’s doubly good with a batch of Apple Butter Pie Crust Cinnamon Rolls.
These potpies are hearty, filling and so very satisfying.
This mouthwatering beef entree is savory and sumptuous.
Here’s what I did.
I used these ingredients for the beef potpie filling. You’ll also need plain pastry for two double crust pies.
Sprinkle stew beef with Montreal Steak Seasoning. Then dredge stew beef in flour.
Cook in two tablespoons avocado oil in large Dutch oven until beef is no longer pink.
Add beef broth.
The beef broth will fill up about half of the pan. Cover with lid and cook about 30 minutes over low heat, until beef is tender.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet add remaining tablespoon of avocado oil. Add celery, leeks, carrots, potatoes and onion.
Stir ingredients to combine.
Cover vegetables with lid and cook about 15 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Remove lid. Season vegetables with salt, pepper, thyme and parsley.
Transfer vegetables to pot with beef.
Add frozen corn, peas and green beans.
Cover with lid and cook about 5 minutes more. Remove from heat. Meanwhile prepare plain pastry.
When all six pie crusts are rolled out, begin the process of filling the pies.
Top beef filling with top pie crust and flute edges.
Cut slits in the top so steam can escape while baking. Place pie in preheated oven immediately. Then begin work on the next one.
This is one of the miniature pie shells. Fill with beef filling.
Top with lattice crust. Pop pies in the pre-heated oven immediately after you get the top crust on top and flute the edges.
Bake at 300 degrees for about an hour. This is the Beef and Vegetable Potpie with both a top and bottom crust. I gave this one to my son and his wife.
This is one of the miniature potpies with a lattice crust. This will take about 30-45 minutes at 300 degrees to bake.
Serve this comforting beef entree with Apple Butter Pie Crust Cinnamon Rolls. You’ll be licking your lips after every bite.
Truly, this is a scrumptious way to enjoy beef. I made this with Homemade Pie Crust with Butter.
It was fun making these up in individual servings too.
Here’s the recipe.
