ingredients
-
For the crust
- 1 3⁄4 cups all-purpose white flour
- 3⁄4 cup wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons dried basil
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1⁄4 cup olive oil
- 1 -2 cup warm water
-
For the filling
- 3 1⁄4 cups vegetable broth (which is 2 14oz cans)
- 1⁄2 cup all-purpose white flour
- 3 cups frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
directions
- In a large bowl, combine all of the dried ingredients for the crust.
- Stir with a fork while slowly drizzling in the olive oil.
- Then, ¼-½ c at a time, pour in the water and knead by hand until you get a firm, moist dough.
- Form into a ball, set it in a bowl and chill it in the refrigerator.
- While the dough is chilling, preheat the oven to 400 degrees and bring the broth to a boil in a saucepan.
- Turn the heat to medium-low and slowly sift in the flour while whisking the broth.
- When the last of the flour is in, the broth should be much thicker.
- Turn off the heat and set aside.
- Take the dough out of the refrigerator and lightly dust the work surface with flour.
- Split the dough in half (slightly bigger chunk for the bottom crust).
- Roll out the dough until it's 2-3 inches wider than the pie plate.
- Lightly coat the plate in oil and dust with flour.
- Lay the crust in the plate and make sure it is evenly covering the plate.
- Put the frozen vegetables into the pie in an even layer.
- Cover with the gravy and sprinkle with the seasonings.
- Roll out the rest of the dough and cover the pie.
- Trim off the excess crust and seal shut by pressing with a fork all the way around the edge.
- Make a few puncture holes in the top of the crust to vent any steam.
- Place the pie in the oven for 40 minutes, or until the edges are brown and the top is dry.
- Let cool for at least ten to fifteen minutes before cutting. This will allow the gravy to thicken up a bit.
- Cut into the pie and check. If the gravy is still pretty thin and soupy, let it cool for a while longer.

This was absolutely TERRIBLE. The crust was horridly thick and would not cook through all of the way. The gravy, veggies and seasonings should have been mixed before baking not just layered on top of one another. We had glops of seasoning that assaulted our taste buds. I will not be making this again. I was so embarrassed to have served this to my mother-in-law.

This was delicious! The crust was just fantastic!!! I wasn't able to use wheat flour so I just used all-purpose flour and it still came out great. Note: I made this a second time and it was wonderful again! I served it with mashed potatoes that I had mixed spinach, garlic, and cheddar cheese into and a side of seasoned green beans. YUM!!!

This was scrumptious, many thanks. Added frozen pearl onions and green beans for even more veggies. Didn't have time to do crust, used 2 frozen pie shells, inverting one for a dome [it wasn't beautiful when fully cooked, but it was delicious]! I look forward to checking out all your recipes, thanks again!

I've been vegan since February of 2005, and I was vegetarian for almost a year before that. I love cooking vegan food. People always ask me, "What do you eat?" or, "Doesn't being vegan make it harder to cook?" Nope! In fact, I've found that going vegan opened up a whole new world of cooking for me. I've tried ingredients I otherwise never would have heard of, and found vegan products that are even better than their non-vegan counterparts. I love creating new dishes and recipezaar has been a wealth of inspiration.
