Gluten Free Chicken Pot Pie

This delicious gluten free chicken pot pie recipe was adapted from All Recipes’ Chicken Pot Pie IX recipe, with a couple of twists of my own, creating a very flavorful sauce, with a touch of sweetness, which you may control. I’ve never enjoyed a pot pie before, even when they were made with gluten, but I went back for seconds on this gluten free pot pie! My newly developed gluten free pie crust is moist, light, and flaky, and the sauce in this recipe is so flavorful, making this is a match made in heaven! My husband had to stop eating premade pot pies years ago due to his low-sodium diet. So, he was in heaven with this version, as I was able to control the sodium content. He eats gluten, and truly enjoyed it! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

  4. Make pie crust according to directions, using egg white to coat bottom of crust before adding filling.
  5. Coat top and crust edges with egg white (or egg replacer); bake for 10 minutes; baste top and edges with melted butter; every 10 minutes (3 times) baste top (not edges) with butter, with a total baking time of 40 minutes.

Tips

*Carrots, peas/potatoes may be substituted with fresh or frozen mixed vegetables.

The Worcestershire sauce and the homemade barbecue is spicy, therefore, use less for children, or use a mild barbecue sauce.
