< Back Pot Pie Prep Time: 25 Minutes Cook Time: 30-40 Minutes Serves: 8 Servings Level: You Got This! About the Recipe This cozy vegan pot pie features a flaky, golden crust made effortlessly with our instant, just-add-water mix. Customize the filling with your favorite medley of vegetables—whether you prefer classic carrots and peas, vibrant bell peppers, or hearty mushrooms and greens. Bursting with plant-based goodness, this pot pie is as versatile as it is delicious, making it the perfect meal to warm your soul and satisfy every craving. Simple to prepare and packed with veggies, it’s comfort food at its best! Ingredients Pie Crust 2 cups Everyday Baking Mix 3/4 cup water (or vegan milk) Filling 1 medium onion, diced 1 russet potato, diced 1 small bag of mixed frozen vegetables 1 cup cauliflower, diced 1 celery rib, diced 8 oz tofu, cubed 3 garlic cloves, minced 1 cup veggie stock 1 cup plant-based milk 3 tablespoons flour Preparation Step 1 Preheat oven to 375 °F. Step 2 Prepare the Pie Crust: In a medium bowl, combine the Everyday Baking Mix with the water. Lightly knead the dough for 1–2 minutes, just until it forms a cohesive ball. * Pro Tip: Avoid over-kneading to keep the crust flaky. Cover the dough and set it aside while you prepare the filling. Step 3 Prepare the Filling: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat . Add the onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute. * If you like your tofu a bit crispier you can pan fry it for a few minutes with the garlic and onions. Add the frozen vegetables, vegan milk, and vegetable stock. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer. Once simmering, stir in the tofu . Return to a simmer and let it cook uncovered for 5 minutes. Sprinkle in 4 tablespoons Everyday Baking Mix a nd stir well. Let it simmer for a few more minutes until the filling starts to thicken. Cover the skillet, remove it from the heat, and set aside. Step 4 Assemble the Pot Pie: Divide the dough into two portions: *Make one portion about 10% larger than the other (this will be the bottom crust). Roll out the larger dough ball into a 15-inch circle. Carefully place it into a 9-inch pie pan, letting the edges hang over slightly. Roll out the smaller dough ball into an 11-inch circle for the top crust. Pour the prepared filling into the pie pan, spreading it out evenly. Place the smaller dough circle on top. Press the edges of the top and bottom crusts together and crimp them using your fingers or a fork to seal. Use a knife to cut four slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking. Step 5 Bake the Pot Pie: Place pot pie in the center of the preheated oven ( 375 °F) and loosely tent with foil to prevent the crust from browning too quickly. Bake for 45 minutes , removing the foil for the last 10 minutes to allow the crust to become golden brown. Let the pot pie cool slightly before serving to allow the filling to firm. Previous Next

Compassionate Kitchen is a vegan, organic, and sustainable pantry staples brand. All of our products are vegan certified, USDA certified organic, and sustainably packaged. We only use clean, limited ingredients like unbleached and unbromated 100% whole grain wheat flour. About Us Food With a Conscience Compassionate Kitchen began when Jessica was pregnant with our daughter. We were thinking about the kind of world she would inherit and what responsibility we had in shaping it. Food felt like the most immediate place to begin. With Jessica’s background in environmental science, law, and food policy - and years spent organizing communities around healthier, more just food systems - we knew we couldn’t cut corners. We committed to using certified organic ingredients and to holding ourselves to clear, transparent standards. We’ve pursued vegan certification and invested in environmentally responsible packaging, even when it significantly increases our costs, because those choices reflect who we are, not just what we sell. Because this isn’t just a product line. It’s a reflection of how we live and what we believe. We’re a family-run company. In the beginning, we thought big - broad distribution, wide reach - but when we found our community in Asheville, we brought it closer to home. We focus on sourcing and producing as locally as possible, building relationships face to face, and growing in a way that strengthens the place we live. We believe strong companies are built on conscience. Food with a conscience. Care over convenience. Integrity baked in. We’re building the kind of company we hope our daughter grows up seeing as the norm- one where responsibility isn’t optional, community matters, and doing the right thing isn’t negotiable. Meet Jon & Jessica Hi, we’re Jessica and Jon Crane - the husband-and-wife team behind Compassionate Kitchen. We’re both deeply rooted in the Southeast. Jessica was born and raised in Greenville, South Carolina, and Jon spent most of his childhood there before life carried us in a few different directions. After years of living and working in various parts of the country, we found ourselves drawn back to the mountains of Western North Carolina - the place that has always felt a bit like home. Our journey began with a simple but powerful belief: food should be kind - kind to animals, kind to the planet, and kind to the people gathered around the table. Over the years, as we cooked, baked, and through learning and education, we began to see how deeply food connects to everything - our health, our communities, and the world our children will inherit. We kept coming back to one question: why should anyone feel like they’re “missing out” just because they choose plant-based? Comfort food is emotional. It holds memory and craving and tradition. And we believe no one should have to harm an animal to experience that warmth. There are so many good, healthy, truly scrumptious alternatives - flaky biscuits, tender cakes, warm pancakes - made entirely from plants. So, our mission became beautifully simple: recreate the foods we grew up loving, just a little healthier, a little kinder, and always rooted in compassion.
