Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a 2 1/2-quart casserole dish with cooking spray.

02

Step

0 mins

Roll out puff pastry to the dimensions of the casserole dish, adding 1 inch on all sides. Cover and place in the refrigerator.

03

Step

8 mins

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in garlic, herbes de Provence, salt, and pepper; cook for 1 more minute, stirring occasionally. Add flour and whisk to combine. Cook for 1 minute.

04

Step

9 mins

Pour in broth and cream gradually, stirring continuously until sauce bubbles. Add sausage pieces, vegetables, and potatoes. Cook, stirring continuously, until mixture bubbles again, 4 to 5 minutes. Pour into the prepared casserole dish.

05

Step

Place puff pastry on top of the filling, letting excess dough hang over all sides. Brush pastry with the beaten egg.

06

Step

45 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until pastry is browned and the pot pie is bubbly, about 45 minutes. Cover loosely with foil after 25 minutes, to prevent overbrowning.

07

Step

15 mins

Remove from oven and cool on a rack for about 15 minutes. Serve warm.

For an extra layer of flavor, try using a smoked paprika in place of regular paprika.
Feel free to experiment with different types of sausage or vegetables to customize the pot pie to your liking.
If you don't have frozen hash browns on hand, you can substitute with diced potatoes.
To prevent the bottom crust from becoming soggy, par-bake it for 10-15 minutes before adding the filling.
