  • Total Time: 55 minutes
  • Yield: Serves approximately 6 people 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small carrot, diced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup beef broth
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • 2 unbaked pie crusts (9-inch)
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Add onion, garlic, and carrot; cook until soft.
  3. Stir in flour until well combined. Gradually add beef broth and season with salt and pepper. Simmer for about 5 minutes.
  4. Place one pie crust in a pie plate; pour in the filling. Cover with the second crust and crimp edges to seal. Cut slits in the top crust for steam to escape and brush with beaten egg.
