Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds beef chuck, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 carrots, diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 tablespoon arrowroot flour
- 1 egg
- 0.25 cup cold water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes in batches and brown them on all sides. Remove and set aside.
In the same pot, add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
Return the beef to the pot. Add the beef broth, tomato paste, bay leaf, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for 1.5 hours or until the beef is tender.
Meanwhile, make the pie crust. In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and arrowroot flour.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with cold water and olive oil.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Remove the bay leaf from the beef filling and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Transfer the beef mixture into a 9-inch pie dish.
Roll out the chilled dough between two pieces of parchment paper until it's about 1/4 inch thick.
Place the dough over the beef mixture, trimming any excess. Seal the edges by pressing them against the rim of the dish.
Cut 2-3 small slits in the crust to allow steam to escape.
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Paleo Classic Steak Pie!
