My family loves the holiday season when we get to gather around the dinner table to share our favorite dishes and recipes. When I host holiday gatherings at my place, I always prepare a main dish while my family and friends would bring appetizers and side dishes to share. It's always wonderful to share and create memories with my family through food! If you can't tell by now, everyone in my family are foodies! I guess you can say that the apples don't fall far from the tree! This year, I'll be sharing these amazing Holiday Individual Turkey Pot Pies with my friends and family!
If you haven't done so, be sure to check out my video tutorial above. This recipe is so much fun and so easy to make, yet its super festive and scrumptious! Best of all, you can prepare them a day in advance. Simply prepared the pies (without the egg wash), covered, and keep them in the fridge until ready to bake. On the day of the party, simply brush the egg wash on the pastry and pop them in the oven before your guests arrive. This way, you can join in and enjoy the party, too! As much as I enjoy a holiday feast, I don't think anyone should, or wanted to, slave inside the kitchen for the holidays! This recipe is a perfect solution for you if you are hosting a gathering for your friends and family this holiday season! Think of how easy it will be for the upcoming Thanksgiving, Friendsgiving, Christmas, or New Years' parties!
The flavors of these Holiday Turkey Pot Pies are so amazing that your guests would think that you've spent hours in the kitchen preparing them! Thanks to the Better Than Bouillon Turkey Base, it adds a depth of flavor in the turkey pie fillings in a cinch. It truly elevates and transforms the flavors of your ingredients. You would feel like you're enjoying a traditional slow roasted turkey, but in a pie form, which is a lot more fun to eat than just a traditional roasted turkey (sorry Mr. Turkey!) Rather than the traditional bouillon cube, the Better Than Bouillon Turkey Base is a paste, which makes it a lot easier to incorporate with the ingredients because you don't have to wait for the cube to dissolve. The flavor is so concentrated that it won't dilute your sauce at all! It's truly a flavor bomb, in my opinion!
I'd been using Better Than Bouillon for many years now and always have them on hand. Besides the Turkey Base, my favorites are Roasted Beef Base and Roasted Chicken Base. I make my family's favorite beef stew at least once a week and Better Than Bouillon Roasted Beef Base is the secret ingredient that make it tastes so amazing! Better Than Bouillon Roasted Beef Base intensifies the beefy flavors in the stew without diluting the sauce. I also use it create a soup base, to build flavor in my sauces, to make a quick beef au jus for roasted beef, and to create gravy with it as well. Also, you can substitute the turkey meat in this recipe with chicken (and swap in the Roasted Chicken Base) to make chicken pot pies. And I promise, they will be the best chicken pot pie you'll ever had! They are so good that my kids always wonder if I ordered and pick up the Chicken Pot Pies from the restaurant! There are so many different flavors of Better Than Bouillon to explore, such as the Seasoned Vegetable Base, Roasted Garlic Base (perfect for making garlic bread), and Mushroom Base, & etc. Be sure to grab a few on your next grocery run to take your holiday recipes to the next level and make your life a whole lot easier and flavorful! You can use the product locator on the Better Than Bouillon site or order online to get those hard to find flavors as well!

Makes: 6 (8 ounces Pies)
4 tablespoons butter
1 yellow onion, diced
1 cup pumpkin (frozen, diced)
1 cup mixed vegetables (frozen)
4 cups roasted turkey (diced)
1 tablespoon sage (chiffonade)
1 teaspoon thyme
1/3 cup all-purpose flour (plus more for rolling puff pastry)
2 tablespoons Better Than Bouillon Turkey Base
2 cups turkey stock (low sodium)
3/4 cup heavy cream
2 sheets puff pastry (thawed)
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon water
Cranberry Sauce (for serving)
Fresh Cranberries and Sage leaves (optional, for garnish)
Preheat the oven to 425°F. In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in onions and cook until translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes.
Add in pumpkin, mixed vegetables, turkey, sage, and thyme. Sprinkle the flour over the ingredients, stir gently, and let the flour cook for 1 minute. Add in the Better Than Bouillon Turkey Base and turkey stock. Let the sauce cook until thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the heavy cream. Let the fillings cool off slight while you prepare the puff pastry.
Gently roll out the seams of the puff pastry on a lightly flour-dusted surface. Place your ramekins up-side-down on the pastry as a guide. Cut out 3 pastry per puff pastry sheet. Repeat with the remaining puff pastry sheet.
Evenly divide the turkey fillings into the 6 ramekins. Top each one with a cut out puff pastry. Place the filled ramekins onto a foil lined baking sheet. Whisk the egg yolk and water to create an egg wash. Brush a think layer of egg wash onto each puff pastry.
Bake for 22 to 25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and cooked through.
Let cool slightly before serving. Be very careful, fillings is extremely hot. Garnish with cranberry and sage (if using.) Serve these Holiday Turkey Pot Pies with cranberry sauce and enjoy!
