Ingredients

• Pie crust Either 4 store bought- 2 tops and 2 bottoms, or check out my Easy No-Fail Pie Crust Recipe. You will need to double the recipe
• 3 pounds chopped turkey about 5 cups
• ½ an onion chopped
• ⅔ cup butter
• ⅔ cup flour
• 3½ cups chicken or turkey stock
• 1 cup milk
• 3 cups frozen mixed vegetables thawed
• 1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
• 1/2 teaspoon dried sage
• 1/4 teaspoons ground black pepper
• pinch of garlic powder
• 1 egg beaten

Instructions

• Prepare pie crust using THIS RECIPE (double it). Refrigerate while you prepare the filling. If you're using store bought pie crust, make sure it's thawed.
• Melt butter in a stock pot over medium heat. Add onions and saute until they are translucent, about 3 minutes.
• Add flour and stir to combine. Continue cooking about 2 more minutes, so the flour mixture turns golden (but not browned).
• Slowly add in broth, about ⅓ cup at a time, constantly stirring. Slowly adding it will ensure there are no lumps.
• Add milk and stir. Continue cooking on medium heat, uncovered until sauce thickens. You should be stirring frequently to make sure it doesn't stick to the bottom.
• When sauce is thickened to the consistency of a medium-thick gravy, add turkey and mixed vegetables, and stir to combine.
• Add basil, sage, pepper, and garlic powder to the filling mixture and stir to combine. Take off heat and set aside.
• Roll out half the pie crust, and lay it in a greased 9"x13" baking dish. Pour in sauce mixture. Roll out the other half of the pie crust and lay it on top.
• Press the top and bottom pie crust together (I use a fork for this part), and trim off the excess dough with a knife. Cut slits in the top to let heat and steam escape.
• With a pastry brush, brush beaten egg over top of pot pie.
• Bake in a 375° oven for 30 minutes, until the top pie crust is firm and browned. Take out of oven and cover with foil (to prevent the top crust from burning).
• Return to oven for another 30 minutes, until both crusts are firm and golden
• Take turkey pot pie out of oven and let sit 15-30 minutes to firm.
• Serve warm.
