Ingredients

• 2.5 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup cold water
• 1 large egg (for egg wash)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 medium carrot, diced
• 1 medium celery stalk, diced
• 0.5 cup beef broth
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon gluten-free soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Cut the cold unsalted butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or fork until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Gradually add cold water to the flour mixture, stirring until the dough begins to hold together. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 5

While the dough chills, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent.

Step 6

Add ground beef to the skillet, cooking until browned and breaking it into small pieces.

Step 7

Stir in the diced carrot, celery, beef broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, gluten-free soy sauce, dried thyme, and black pepper.

Step 8

Simmer the meat mixture for about 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 9

Divide the chilled dough into two portions, one slightly larger than the other. Roll out the larger portion on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie pan.

Step 10

Gently press the dough into the pie pan, allowing any excess to hang over the edges.

Step 11

Fill the pie crust with the prepared beef filling, spreading it evenly.

Step 12

Roll out the remaining dough to form the pie top. Place it over the filling, trimming and crimping the edges to seal the pie.

Step 13

Beat the egg and brush it over the crust to create a golden finish during baking.

Step 14

Cut a few slits in the top of the pie to allow steam to escape.

Step 15

Bake the meat pie in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.

Step 16

Let the pie cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy your gluten-free classic meat pie!
