Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 4 cups Shredded Or Diced Cooked Beef
  • 3 cups Beef Broth
  • 3 cups Frozen Sweet Peas

Vegetables and Aromatics:

  • ½ Medium Onion, Finely Chopped
  • 3 stalks Celery, Thinly Sliced
  • 3 Large Carrots, Peeled And Thinly Sliced
  • 3 cloves Garlic, Minced

Biscuit and Seasoning Ingredients:

  • 3 cups All-purpose Einkorn Flour
  • 8 Tablespoons Cold Butter, Sliced
  • ¾ cup Buttermilk Or More If Needed
  • 3 Tablespoons Butter
  • 6 Tablespoons All-purpose Flour
  • ¾ cup Heavy Cream
  • 3 Tablespoons Chopped Fresh Parsley
  • 1 ½ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon Dried Thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon Dried Rosemary
  • ½ teaspoon Dried Parsley
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat at 350°F. Sauté ½ chopped onion, 3 sliced celery stalks, and 3 sliced carrots until softened, about 5-6 minutes.
  2. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 6 tablespoons flour. Stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.
  3. Gradually whisk in 3 cups beef broth and ¾ cup heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat. Simmer until sauce thickens, approximately 4-5 minutes.
  5. Stir in 3 tablespoons chopped parsley, 3 cups frozen peas, and 4 cups cooked beef. Transfer to a 13×9-inch baking dish.
  6. Mix 3 cups einkorn flour, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and all herbs in a food processor.
  7. Add 8 tablespoons cold butter slices. Pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  8. Pour ¾ cup buttermilk into processor. Pulse until dough forms.
  9. Turn dough onto floured surface. Fold into thirds three times for layered texture.
  10. Roll dough to ½-inch thickness. Cut into 2-inch squares.
  11. Arrange biscuit squares over beef filling, slightly overlapping.
  12. Bake at 375°F for 25-30 minutes until biscuits turn golden and filling bubbles.

Notes

  • Chop vegetables uniformly to ensure even cooking and consistent texture throughout the pot pie.
  • Keep butter cold when making biscuit topping to achieve maximum flakiness and tender, light layers.
  • When folding biscuit dough, handle it gently to prevent overworking, which can make the topping tough and dense.
  • For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free blend and use gluten-free broth.
