Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add diced leftover turkey, sliced carrots, and peas, sautéing for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Pour in 1 cup of cream, stirring to combine, and season with herbs and spices, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until the mixture is heated through and well combined.
- Once cooked, remove the skillet from heat and allow the creamy turkey filling to cool for about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to help it cool evenly.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) while rolling out the pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Using a round cookie cutter or a glass, cut out circles to fit your mini pie dishes.
- Place the pie crust circles into the greased mini pie dishes, gently pressing them into the bottoms and sides. Spoon in the creamy turkey filling, about three-quarters full. Cut smaller circles from the remaining crust for the tops, placing them on each filled pie and cutting vent holes.
- Arrange the mini pies on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the crusts are golden brown and the filling is bubbling through the vents.
- Once baked, remove the mini pies from the oven and let them cool for about 5-10 minutes before serving.

Notes
Let the filling cool to prevent the pie crust from becoming soggy and use quality pie pans for even baking.
