🏡 Homestead Tip

Think of the crust as part of the seasoning of a savory pie. A mild filling leaves room for a more flavorful crust, while a strongly seasoned filling may pair beautifully with something simpler. There is no single combination that works for every recipe—the fun is matching the crust to the ingredients you are already cooking with and creating a savory pie that tastes like it was meant to go together.

What is a savory pie crust?

A savory pie crust is a pastry crust made for non-dessert fillings such as chicken, beef, vegetables, cheese, mushrooms, sausage, and other hearty ingredients. Savory crusts can be used for pot pies, meat pies, hand pies, savory tarts, breakfast pies, and many other meals. Millstone Acres Savory Pie Crust Mixes include both a classic savory crust and flavored varieties for pairing with different fillings.

What can I make with savory pie crust?

Savory pie crust can be used for chicken or beef pot pie, turkey pie, meat pies, vegetable pies, hand pies, pasties, savory turnovers, rustic tarts, breakfast pies, and individual pot pies. You can also change the filling with the seasons, making savory crust a versatile option for everything from weeknight dinners to holiday leftovers.

What is the difference between savory pie crust and sweet pie crust?

The biggest difference is the flavor profile. Sweet pie crusts are designed to complement dessert fillings, while savory pie crusts are made to pair with meats, vegetables, cheeses, herbs, and other savory ingredients. A savory crust can also include seasonings such as garlic, onion, or peppers to complement the filling.

Do you need to blind bake pie crust for a savory pie?

Not always. Whether a savory pie crust should be blind baked depends on the recipe and the moisture level of the filling. A very wet filling or a recipe with a short final baking time may benefit from partially baking the bottom crust first, while many traditional pot pie recipes are designed to bake successfully with an unbaked crust. Follow the method recommended for the savory pie recipe you are preparing.

How do you keep the bottom of a savory pie crust from getting soggy?

Start with a filling that is thick rather than watery, and avoid letting excess liquid soak into the dough before baking. Depending on the recipe, partially baking the bottom crust can also help with especially moist fillings. Keeping the dough cold and baking until the crust is properly golden can further improve the finished texture.

How do you make savory pie crust flaky?

Cold ingredients are one of the keys to flaky pie crust. Prepare Millstone Acres Savory Pie Crust Mixes with ice-cold butter and ice-cold water, and avoid overworking the dough. Keeping small pieces of cold butter in the dough allows steam to form during baking, helping create tender, flaky layers.

Can savory pie crust dough be made ahead of time?

Yes. Pie crust dough can generally be prepared ahead and kept chilled until you are ready to roll and shape it. Making the dough in advance can be especially convenient for pot pies, hand pies, and holiday meals because the crust can be prepared separately from the filling. Follow the storage directions for the specific recipe you are using.

Which savory pie crust flavor should I use?

Choose the crust according to the flavors in your filling. Classic Savory Pie Crust Mix is the most versatile choice when you want the filling to lead. Garlic works well when you want an additional savory note, Onion & Garlic complements many hearty fillings, and Jalapeño & Garlic is a flavorful option for Southwest-inspired recipes. Matching the crust to the filling lets both become part of the finished dish.
