For a richer flavor, use vegetable broth instead of water to cook the lentils.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the filling, such as carrots, peas, or corn.
If you don't have time to make your own dough, you can use store-bought pie crust.
These pasties are great for meal prepping, as they can be made ahead of time and reheated.
To freeze, bake the pasties and cool completely. Wrap individually in plastic wrap and then place in a freezer bag. Reheat in a 350°F oven until warmed through.

    I tried this recipe with store-bought pie crust, and it worked out great! It saved me a lot of time, and the pasties were still delicious. I'll definitely be making these again.

  • Lourdes Simonis

    I've made these pasties several times, and they're always a hit! The crust is perfectly flaky, and the filling is so flavorful. I sometimes add a bit of curry powder to the lentils for extra warmth.

  • Meghan Walsh
