Two Mummy Chicken Pot Pies on a black plate

My boys get so upset when I tell them we are having chicken pot pie for dinner. They do not like chicken pot pie…especially my 8 year old. However, making their own fun individual pot pie really helps to get them to eat it. This worked on my 6 year old and 2 year old. My 8 year old does not care what a pot pie looks like…he is definitely not a fan!:) I absolutely love chicken pot pie and I use this recipe all the time. You can also make one large mummy pot pie in a regular pie pan with this recipe if you choose to.

Mummy Pot Pies

(Makes 4)

Ingredients You’ll Need

  • Cubed chicken
  • Carrots
  • Green peas
  • Celery
  • Butter
  • Onion
  • All-purpose flour
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Celery seed
  • Chicken broth
  • Milk
  • 2 (9 inch) unbaked pie crusts

How To Make Mummy Pot Pies

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C.)
  • Chop up your celery and carrots. Put your chopped veggies, peas, and diced chicken in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. Save a few peas for the mummy eyes.
  • Roll out your pie crust. We used 4 (6oz) souffle dishes. Place the souffle dish on the crust and cut a circle with a inch or so beyond the dish. Place the bottom crust in the dish and press on the bottom and sides. There should be some of it sticking out around the top. In the saucepan over medium heat, cook onions in butter until soft. Stir in flour, salt, pepper, and celery seed. Slowly stir in chicken broth and milk. Simmer over medium-low heat until thick. Remove from heat.
  • Place the chicken mixture in bottom pie crusts and pour the flour/milk mixture over the top.
  • Cut the rest of the pie crust into strips and lay them on top (leaving a opening on the side for eyes), seal edges, and cut away excess dough. Press down on the sides a bit to prevent any of the mixture from coming out. Place 2 peas on the opening for the eyes.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown and filling is bubbly. We did cover ours with foil in the middle of baking to prevent over browning.
