Instructions
 

For the pie crust

  1. Mix dry ingredients on a flat work surface.
  2. Add vegetable shortening and knead until a uniform consistency is achieved.
  3. Add the cold water and knead again until a dough forms.
  4. Split the dough into 2 equal sized portions.
  5. Use a rolling pin to roll each portion to about 1/4 inch thick, and about 10 inches diameter.
  6. Use one crust to line the pie plate and set the second aside for the topping.

For the filling

  1. Preheat your oven to 425° Fahrenheit.
  2. Chop the onion, celery, and carrots. Peel and chop the potatoes into about 1" pieces.
  3. In a medium pot, saute the onion in olive oil (or butter) for about 3-5 minutes until it begins to soften.
  4. Add carrots, celery and spices to the pot and stir.
  5. Add the broth and potatoes and bring the mixture to a boil. Let boil about 10 minutes or until potatoes are mostly fork-tender.
  6. Add the flour and stir constantly until mixture has thickened.
  7. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust.
  8. Top with the second layer of pie crust, pinch the edges to adhere, and cut a few slits in the top of the crust to vent.
  9. Bake uncovered at 425° Fahrenheit for 20 minutes. Then, cover with aluminum foil (to prevent the crust edges from burning) and bake 5-10 more minutes.
  10. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  1. Want to Make this Ahead of Time? You can construct this pie ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours before cooking.
  2. Not Vegan? Add rotisserie chicken! Just make sure to adjust the other ingredients to have about 3 cups total of filling.
  3. Looking to cut down prep time? Use a frozen vegetable mixture instead.
  4. Gluten-Free? Use cornstarch instead of flour to make this recipe gluten-free (make sure you are using a gluten-free crust as well).
