2½ cups (330 g / ~127 kcal) raw carrots
5+ cups water
Optional seasonings:
1 tsp ground ginger
2 tsp turmeric
2 tsp dried dill weed
Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 350°F / 177°C
2. Begin boiling veggies:
(Optional): Add seasonings to 4 cups of water in a large pot. Stir well
Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a large pot
Once rapidly boiling, add the raw sweet potato
Cover with a lid and reduce heat to medium
3. Carefully add the turkey after ~15 minutes. Replace lid and keep heat on medium
4. Stir in remaining veggies after ~5 minutes. Replace lid and keep heat
5. Wash your hands thoroughly—time to start on the dough!
6. Make the Dough:
Mix flour, 1 beaten egg, and 1 cup water in a large bowl. Dough should be slightly sticky
Roll dough out on a floured surface until thin and stretchy. Set aside
7. Finish filling:
Remove pot from heat. Optional: add 5 tsp sugar-free cranberry juice (adds antioxidants and dog-safe “sherry”)
Shred pot contents so that the mixture is chunk-free
8. Assemble Pot Pie:
Scoop pot contents into an oven-safe bowl, leaving ½ inch of space at the top
Store leftover filling in the fridge (up to 5 days) or freezer (up to 1 month).
9. Prepare Dough Topping:
Lightly brush the top with a beaten egg to help prevent burning
Prick the rolled dough a few times with a fork (to help cook thoroughly)
Optional Pre-Bake Tip 🧑🍳: Partially pre-bake crust on a baking sheet for 5-7 minutes
Drape the dough over the bowl as a crust.
10. Bake pie for 20 minutes, or until crust is fully cooked through
