  • Add some herbs and spices to the pot pie filling for extra flavor. Some good options include thyme, rosemary, sage, and black pepper.
  • If you're using a pre-made pie crust, be sure to pre-bake it according to the package directions.
  • Brush the top of the pie crust with milk or egg wash before baking to give it a golden brown color.
  • Let the pot pie cool for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.
