Make your crust. This recipe only has a crust on top. Using a stand mixer or hand held mixture, beat flour, butter, salt, pepper and water until dough forms. It will be a little bit sticky.
Roll your dough into a round ball and press flat. Place the dough on a floured surface or place between 2 sheets of wax paper and roll until it is large enough to cover your pie plate. Cover your pot pie filling with the crust and poke a hole in the center.
Bake the pot pie at 375 for 35 mins. Allow it to cool for 5 minutes and enjoy.
