Prepare the gluten-free pie crust according to the package instructions. Roll out half of the dough and line a 9-inch pie pan. Set aside the remaining dough for the top crust.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and celery, cooking until they start to soften, about 5 minutes.
Add the peas and carrots to the skillet, and cook for another 3 minutes.
Stir in the tuna, gluten-free cream of mushroom soup, and chicken broth. Add garlic powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
Cook the mixture for another 5 minutes, or until it starts to thicken slightly. Remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
Pour the tuna mixture into the prepared pie crust.
Roll out the remaining pie crust dough and cover the filled pie. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges to seal.
In a small bowl, beat together the egg yolk and water. Brush over the top crust for a golden finish.
Cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Gluten-Free Classic Tuna Pie warm.
