Roasted Vegetables
- 2 cups butternut squash, peeled and cubed
- 1 cup carrots, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup parsnips, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1 1/2 cups brussels sprouts, halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
Pie Filling
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Pastry & Finishing
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the vegetables.
- Prepare Vegetables: In a large bowl, combine butternut squash, carrots, parsnips, sweet potatoes, and brussels sprouts. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Toss everything well to coat evenly.
- Roast Vegetables: Spread the vegetables evenly on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until tender and caramelized. Remove from oven and set aside.
- Sauté Onion and Garlic: Melt butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add Flour: Stir in the flour and cook while stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes to cook out the raw flour taste.
- Create Sauce: Gradually whisk in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it thicken for 3-4 minutes while stirring.
- Add Cream and Vegetables: Stir in heavy cream and the roasted vegetables until well combined. Season with additional salt and pepper if necessary, then remove from heat.
- Prepare Pastry: If needed, preheat the oven again to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut into rounds slightly larger than your oven-safe bowls or ramekins.
- Assemble Pot Pies: Divide the vegetable mixture evenly among the bowls. Top each with a puff pastry round, pressing the edges to seal the filling inside.
- Apply Egg Wash: Brush the tops of the pastry with the beaten egg to ensure a shiny, golden crust after baking.
- Bake: Place the bowls on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is puffed and golden brown.
- Serve: Allow the pot pies to cool slightly before serving hot for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute heavy cream with coconut cream for a dairy-free version.
- Ensure vegetables are cut into uniform sizes for even roasting.
- Use fresh herbs for the most vibrant flavor, but dried can be substituted in smaller quantities.
- To make this dish vegan, replace butter with plant-based margarine and use a non-dairy milk for the cream.
- Leftover filling can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
