Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Gather your seasonal vegetables: butternut squash, carrots, parsnips, sweet potatoes, and Brussels sprouts. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped vegetables and drizzle with olive oil, seasoning with salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Toss until evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned vegetable mixture out on a large baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and caramelized.
- Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing for about 5 minutes until translucent and fragrant.
- Stir in all-purpose flour with the sautéed onion and garlic, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until the flour is lightly golden.
- Gradually whisk in vegetable broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Increase the heat slightly and simmer the mixture for 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in the heavy cream into the thickened broth mixture, followed by the roasted vegetables. Mix well, ensuring each bite is filled with comforting flavors.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out your thawed puff pastry dough to achieve an even thickness. Cut out pastry rounds that are slightly larger than the tops of your ramekins.
- Divide the creamy vegetable filling among your oven-safe bowls. Top each with the puff pastry rounds, pressing the edges down gently to seal.
- Brush the tops of the puff pastry with a beaten egg for a golden finish. Place the assembled pot pies on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes.
- Once baked, carefully remove the pot pies from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
