Cook until soft \u2013 about 7 minutes.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add the flour and stir with a whisk, then slowly whisk in the broth.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add almond milk, bay leaves and stir. Simmer until the mixture is thickened (about 10 minutes). If it still appears too thin, scoop out 1\/2 cup of the broth and add 1-2 Tbsp more flour and whisk. Add back into the pot to thicken. Wait a few minutes, then repeat if necessary.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">While the sauce is thickening, prepare biscuits (if using). Cut out, leave unbaked, and set aside.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Once the sauce is thickened, add the frozen vegetables and cook for 4-5 more minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more salt and pepper if needed.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Discard the bay leaves and divide the mixture evenly between 5-6 lightly greased ramekins or a 8\u00d78 baking dish. Top with vegan biscuits and brush the tops of the biscuits with melted vegan butter. Set your 8\u00d78 dish or ramekins on a baking sheet to catch overflow and bake until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly (about 14-17 minutes). Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">If making ahead of time, simply spoon the cooked veggie mixture into your ramekins or dish, top with uncooked biscuits, and freeze. When ready to prepare, preheat oven to 425 degrees and cook until the biscuits are golden brown and the mixture is bubbly \u2013 roughly 20-30 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"ERSClear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERSNotesDiv\">\n<div class=\"ERSNotesHeader\">NOTES<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERSNotes\">*This recipe could easily be adapted to include chicken. Simply add in 1 chicken breast cubed while the sauce is thickening before you add the veggies. Just make sure it\u2019s cooked all the way through before putting in ramekins for baking.<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERSClear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERSNutrition nutrition\">\n<div class=\"ERSNutritionHeader\">NUTRITION INFORMATION<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERSNutrionDetails\">Serving size:\u00a01 pot pie Calories:\u00a0307 Fat:\u00a012g Saturated fat:\u00a04g Carbohydrates:\u00a041gSugar:\u00a05.5g Sodium:\u00a01244mg Fiber:\u00a04.7g Protein:\u00a08.3g<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looking for comfort for this time a year? \u00a0Try this Vegan Veggie Pot Pie This recipe is from the Minimalist Baker (http:\/\/minimalistbaker.com\/).
