Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes. Drain any excess fat if needed.
Stir in the chopped onion and diced carrot. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften.
Sprinkle the flour over the beef and vegetables, stirring to coat evenly, and cook for 1 minute.
Slowly pour in the beef broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Add Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes until thickened. Stir in the frozen peas and cook for 1 more minute. Remove from heat.
Divide the beef mixture evenly between two 8-ounce ramekins or small oven-safe dishes.
Unroll the thawed puff pastry sheet and cut it into two pieces, slightly larger than the ramekins.
Place a piece of puff pastry over each ramekin, pressing the edges to seal. Trim any excess pastry if necessary.
Brush the beaten egg over the puff pastry to give it a golden, glossy finish.
Cut a small slit in the center of each pastry to allow steam to escape during baking.
Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your quick and delicious beef pot pie!
