Ingredients

  • 1 pre-made vegan pie crust
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cups mushrooms, sliced (such as cremini or button)
  • 2 leeks, cleaned and sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon thyme, dried or fresh
  • 1 teaspoon rosemary, dried or fresh
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (for thickening)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until translucent.
  2. Add the mushrooms and leeks, cooking until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in garlic, thyme, and rosemary, and cook for another minute.
  3. Pour in the vegetable broth, along with nutritional yeast if using. Bring to a simmer, then add the cornstarch mixture to thicken. Cook until the filling is rich and creamy, about 2-3 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Assemble the Pie: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the pie crust into a pie dish. Pour the mushroom and leek filling into the crust, then cover with another layer of crust or create a lattice top if desired. Cut slits in the top crust for steam to escape.
  5. Bake: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
  6. Serve: Let the pie cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy your Vegan Mushroom and Leek Pie!
