Beef Pot Pie
I have an easy dinner option for all of you!! Pot pie….yes I said pot pie and it will be on your table in about 35 minutes. You don’t have to make pie crust (unless you want to 🙂 ) because we are taking a little help from the store and using canned biscuits. It’s filled with ground beef and vegetables in an easy homemade gravy and topped with biscuits. Plus, it’s made in one skillet!
Instead of simmering tougher cuts of meat like traditional beef pot pies let’s use ground beef which cuts down the cook time drastically! Most days I don’t have time to babysit dinner and I’m assuming you don’t either. So, easy yet comforting dishes are a must.
A few other easy comforting dishes you have to try are: Upside Down Pizza Casserole, Easy Taco Soup, Chile Con Queso Mac and Cheese.
Beef Pot Pie Recipe
I know I am probably going to be in the minority when I say this but I am so over summer!!! I am done with the 98+ degree weather every day, no rain, and how it’s been too miserable to do anything but sit in front of a fan. We have FINALLY cooled off this past week and we have been soaking it up!
It’s been in the mid 80s and down in the mid 50s at night and it’s giving me that fall baking itch and wanting all the comfort foods. I’ll be honest it’s those foods I have a true passion for and find myself making them over and over.
Ground Beef Pot Pie
I can cook/bake them without a recipe and they are the dishes my family devours. Sure I crave a good salad every now and again but my true love is an old-fashioned Sunday dinner. It’s what I grew up eating and I know it gets a bad rap for being “unhealthy” but I’ve always believed in everything in moderation!
Haha!! My thighs don’t really sport that motto right now, they need a little more moderation!! Oh, well I’m working on it! 🙂
Grocery List for Beef Pot Pie Recipe
- ground beef
- onion
- garlic
- flour
- milk
- beef broth/stock
- canned mixed vegetables
- biscuits
- dried thyme (optional)
Tips for making this Easy Skillet Beef Pot Pie Recipe:
- Use any topping you desire, store-bought or homemade. Canned biscuits, pie crust, crescent dough, or even puff pastry are all great options and offer different variations. You don’t have to cut up the biscuits either. I just like too because it makes it more fun for the kids. If you use pie crust just use one crust and lay on top. Cut a couple of slits to help vent the air. If using crescent dough break dough up into the triangles and arrange on top overlapping as needed.
- I used 2 cans of mixed vegetables but frozen work great too. Use about 3 cups of frozen vegetables in place of the canned veggies.
- If you don’t have a cast iron skillet just use any oven-going skillet or baking dish.
How to Make Beef Pot Pie
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a large oven-going skillet brown ground beef with onion and garlic until no longer pink. Drain if needed.
- Sprinkle with flour and stir to mix well. Stir in milk, broth, and simmer until slightly thickened.
- Stir in vegetables. Top with biscuits and sprinkle with thyme if desired.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until golden.

Tried this recipe?Let us know how it was!
Very Tasty! The recipe uses basic food items that I have here at home and it goes together quickly.
So glad you enjoyed them Jill!
This was absolutely yummy!! I added some Worcestershire and Balsamic it was perfect and easy on a really cold and wet day. Thank you.
Stephanie
Sounds delicious! I’m so glad you loved this one!
What size baking pan would you if you don’t have a skillet?
Any large casserole dish or a 9×13 pan would work fine!
I love pot pie, so thank you for this! Looks so easy.
You’ll love it!
This sounds delish and easy. Going to try it tonight
Perfect! I hope you enjoy it!
We are stuck in the house because of the stay at home order due to Corona Virus. We are out of milk and can’t go to the store. Will try this with 2 cups beef broth. Hopefully that will work?
It might not be as thick but I think it’ll still be okay. You could add 1/4 cup of sour cream with your 2 cups of beef broth to give it a creamier texture.
The sour cream would be a good substitution for milk. I used Better then Bullion with water and half and half. It looks good in the pan. We have it in the oven now.
Hope you enjoyed it!
If wanted to add potatoes when would it be the time?
I would try one of two things. Either boil the potatoes ahead of time and add them with the veggies or fry the potatoes with the beef and then follow the remaining instructions. Let me know how it goes!
