Creamy Beef and Potato Pot Pie
Ingredients
- 1 unbaked pie crust
- 1 pound ground beef
- 3 medium sized potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1 onion
- 2 TBSP flour
- 2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp basil
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 1 to 1 1/2 cups cream
Instructions
- Peel and cube your potatoes. Set aside.
- In a large pan, cook your ground beef, salt, pepper, basil, onion powder, and a little cooking oil of your choice. Scoop into a bowl and set aside.

How long should I bake this pie for?
Bake this pie in a 400 degree Fahrenheit oven for about 20 – 25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Allow the pie to cool for about 10 minutes once you take it out of the oven.
Letting the pie cool down for a little bit before cutting into it will make it much less messy when cutting slices!
How long can I keep the leftovers?
This pie can be kept in the refrigerator in a sealed container for up to one week.
The best way to reheat this pie is right in the oven!
Bake it at 400 degrees for about 5 minutes, or until it has warmed up to the temperature you would like it to be.
This makes the crust extra crispy!
Do I need to prebake my crust?
Nope!
Just cook your pie in an unbaked crust.
