Equipment Needed:

  • Mixing bowls
  • Rolling pin
  • Muffin tin
  • Whisk
  • Pastry cutter or knife

Ingredients:

For the Crust:

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • ½ cup butter, softened
  • 1 large egg

For the Filling:

  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup low-carb vegetables (e.g., broccoli, cauliflower, bell peppers), chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Crust:
    • In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and softened butter.
    • Add the egg and mix until a dough forms.
    • Shape the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to firm up.
  2. Prepare the Filling:
    • In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and the cheese is fully melted.
    • Add the shredded chicken and chopped low-carb vegetables to the cheese mixture. Stir to combine.
    • Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Assemble the Pot Pies:
    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
    • Remove the dough from the refrigerator. On a sheet of parchment paper, roll out the dough to about ¼-inch thickness.
    • Using a round cutter or a glass, cut out circles large enough to fit into the cups of your muffin tin, reserving some dough for the top crusts.
    • Press the dough circles into the muffin tin cups, ensuring they cover the bottom and sides.
    • Fill each crust with the chicken and vegetable mixture.
    • Roll out the remaining dough and cut out smaller circles to serve as the top crusts. Place these over the filling and press the edges to seal.
    • Using a sharp knife, make a small slit or poke holes in the top crusts to allow steam to escape during baking.
  4. Bake:
    • Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crusts are golden brown.
    • Once done, remove from the oven and allow the mini pot pies to cool slightly before serving.
