Notes
Recipe FAQs
Why did my pot pie turn out watery?
Watery pot pie filling is often the result of either using too much liquid or too much filling. If the casserole dish is too full, the liquid will leak out and make your crust soggy.
How do I thicken the filling?
This Bisquick pot pie recipe uses cream of mushroom soup to thicken the filling. If you find that your filling is still not thick enough, a cornstarch slurry will help. Simply combine a tablespoon of cornstarch and a tablespoon of very cold water, then stir it into the filling.
How long should my pie be in the oven?
Our recipe for Bisquick chicken pot pie calls for baking it at 400°F for 30 minutes. The filling should be bubbling and the topping should be golden brown. If the crust is becoming too dark, just cover it loosely with aluminum foil for the remaining bake time.
