Ingredients

• 4 cups Cooked turkey (shredded or diced)
• 4 tablespoons Butter
• 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2.5 cups Chicken or turkey stock
• 0.5 cups Heavy cream
• 1 cup Frozen peas
• 1 cup Carrots (diced and cooked)
• 0.5 cups Celery (diced)
• 1 medium Onion (finely chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 sheets Pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 Egg (beaten, for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a large pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the chopped onion and celery, cooking until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.

Step 4

Gradually whisk in the chicken or turkey stock, followed by the heavy cream. Continue stirring until the mixture thickens into a creamy sauce, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Add the cooked turkey, peas, carrots, thyme, salt, and black pepper to the sauce. Mix well to evenly combine.

Step 6

Roll out one sheet of pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess dough along the edges.

Step 7

Pour the turkey filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.

Step 8

Cover the pie with the second pie crust. Trim excess dough, then crimp the edges together to seal.

Step 9

Cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Step 10

Brush the crust with the beaten egg to achieve a golden finish.

Step 11

Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and bubbling.

Step 12

Let the turkey pie cool for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.
