Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 medium (diced) Yellow onion
- 2 minced Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.333 cup Beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
- 2 9-inch rounds Pie crusts (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 large (beaten, for egg wash) Egg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef. Cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 6-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Sprinkle the flour over the cooked beef mixture and stir to combine. Cook for 1 minute to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Stir in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Lower the heat to medium and simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
Roll out one 9-inch pie crust and line a 9-inch pie dish with it. Trim any excess overhang.
Spoon the loose meat filling into the pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Place the second pie crust over the top of the filling. Trim, tuck, and crimp the edges to seal the pie.
Cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
Brush the top crust with the beaten egg to create a golden-brown finish.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
