Directions
Preheat & Prep
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare the puff pastry: Cut one puff pastry sheet into four even squares. You will have one extra square left over.Saute the Vegetables
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the chopped onion, potatoes, and carrots. Sauté, stirring often, until the onions are translucent, about 7 minutes. Stir in the garlic, poultry seasoning, and salt and sauté 2 minutes to cook the garlic.Make the Rue
Stir in the flour. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 2 minutes, to cook the flour. Slowly whisk in the almond milk, then the vegetable broth. Stir in the peas. Bring to a low boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 10 minutes to thicken the rue and continue cooking the potatoes and carrots.Assemble the Pot Pies
Place three 0.5 quart dutch ovens or mini cast iron skillets on a large baking sheet (this is to catch any drippings). Use a ladle to transfer the vegetable mixture into each mini dutch oven. Place each pre-cut square of puff pastry directly on top of the mini pot pies. Use a sharp knife to cut one 1-inch slit in the center of each puff pastry topping. Brush a couple tablespoons of the egg wash (egg whisked with water) over each puff pastry topping.Bake the Pot Pies
Transfer baking sheet with dutch ovens to the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and the potatoes are fork tender. Cool for 15 minutes before serving.
