Equipment

Ingredients
 
 

Pie Crust Dough

  • 2 ¼ cup all purpose flour
  • ½ cup vegan butter cold
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon organic sugar
  • ⅓ cup + 2 teaspoons cold water

Vegan Broccoli Cheddar Filling

  • ½ teaspoon light olive oil
  • ¼ Vidalia onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic roughly chopped
  • 1 (12 ounces) block soy free tofu see note
  • 3 tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 1 cup non-dairy milk unsweetened and unflavored
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 head of broccoli cut into florets (around 8.35 ounces of florets)
  • ¾ cup vegan cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • Salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Make the filling:

  • Heat oil in a large pan over medium-low heat. Sauté onion and garlic for 2–3 minutes.
  • Add tofu cubes and season with salt, garlic powder, and onion powder (or any seasonings you like).
  • Sprinkle flour over the mixture, stirring to coat. Cook for 1–2 minutes until lightly golden.
  • Slowly pour in non-dairy milk and water, stirring constantly until a thick sauce forms.
  • Add broccoli, nutritional yeast, and vegan cheese. Reduce heat to low and cook 7–10 minutes, until cheese is melted and broccoli is tender. Taste and adjust seasoning.

Make the crust:

  • In a food processor, pulse flour, salt, and sugar. Add cubed vegan butter and pulse until crumbly.
  • Stream in cold water, pulsing until a rough dough forms.
  • Transfer dough to a floured surface and gently form into a smooth ball. If the dough feels very sticky slowly add in 1-2 tablespoons of flour.

Assemble the pot pie:

  • Divide dough into two pieces: one slightly larger than the other. I divided it into about a ⅓ and ⅔.
  • Roll the larger piece into a thin rectangle and drape it over a greased baking dish, pressing into shape. Trim excess overhang.
  • Add the filling into the crust.
  • Roll out the smaller piece of dough and lay it on top. Cut an “X” in the center for steam to escape and crimp edges with a fork.
  • Optional: Mix 3 tablespoons of non-dairy milk with ⅛ teaspoon turmeric and brush over the crust for a golden finish.
  • Bake for 20–22 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy.
  • Cool for 10 minutes before cutting.
