Ingredients
  

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
  • 1.5 cups brussels sprouts, halved
Flavorings & Sauces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 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
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine butternut squash, carrots, parsnips, sweet potatoes, and brussels sprouts. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Toss until veggies are well-coated.
  3. Spread vegetables evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes or until tender and caramelized. Remove and set aside.
Cooking
  1. In a large pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent, around 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in the flour, cooking and stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
  3. Gradually whisk in the vegetable broth and bring to a simmer, allowing to thicken for about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream and roasted vegetables, combining everything smoothly. Season with salt and pepper if needed, then remove from heat.
Assembly
  1. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut rounds slightly larger than the tops of your oven-safe bowls.
  2. Divide the vegetable mixture among the bowls. Place a puff pastry round on top of each, pressing to seal the edges.
  3. Brush the tops with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
Baking
  1. Place the bowls on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until puffed and golden. Let cool slightly before serving hot.

Notes

These pot pies can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. Freeze before baking for up to 2-3 months. For variations, consider using different herbs or playing with the creamy ingredient.
