Hand pies are a British staple, and Jacqueline – the Scot behind Tinned Tomato – knows hand pies! These delightful pockets mix chickpeas, basil-seasoned roasted vegetables, and hummus for a Mediterranean twist on a traditional classic.

Frozen puff pastry makes these a snap to prepare, and provides a flaky crunch to the finished pies.

9 Super Savory Vegan Pie Recipes to Warm Your Heart (3)

If you’re looking for a stunning vegan centerpiece for a holiday table, especially one that will be enjoyed by vegans and non-vegans alike, look no further than this Wellington from Natalie of The Tofu Diaries.

Store-bought puff pastry is almost always vegan (but do check), which makes this recipe a snap to prepare. Rich, sumptuous chestnuts mingle with sweet parsnips, rosemary, and the savory bite of red onions.

Find Natalie’s recipe at her blog, The Tofu Diaries.

Leek and Mushroom Pie from Vegan Convert

Filled with leeks, garlicky mushrooms, and a vegan cream sauce, Molly’s pie recipe was tasty enough to convince even her non-vegan boyfriend that vegans can eat some pretty darn good food.

Both homemade and store-bought pie pastry work a dream here, so you can use whichever you please. There’s no shame in using store-bought shortcuts to make tasty, healthy food!

Vegan Jackfruit Pot Pie from Soy Division

9 Super Savory Vegan Pie Recipes to Warm Your Heart (5)

Sarah uses jackfruit, an Asian tree fruit that’s been gaining popularity outside of the continent over the last decade or so, to make this pot pie.

Jackfruit has little natural flavor, but is a great absorber, and shreds into a texture reminiscent of pulled pork. Here, she combines it with traditional pot pie ingredients such as onion, potatoes, carrots, and peas for a filling, yet vegan, take on pot pie.

Make sure you buy jackfruit in brine or water – not syrup for this recipe, as you don’t want the added sweetness. Find Sarah’s innovative take on the pot pie at her blog, Soy Division (which is probably the best vegan blog name ever, by the way!).

Black Bean and Mushroom Shepherd’s Pie from Trinity’s Conscious Kitchen

9 Super Savory Vegan Pie Recipes to Warm Your Heart (6)

Shepherd’s pie is a wonderful blank canvas for whatever fillings you want to put in it – as long as they’re hearty, scrumptious, and warming. Trinity uses black beans and mushrooms in this take on the classic, and it’s certainly a winning combination.

Because shepherd’s pie is such a blank canvas, you can feel free to add in extra ingredients, mix up the spice blend, or swap out ingredients you don’t like for those you do. It will still taste fabulous…especially with a dollop of vegan tomato ketchup on the side!

Because of how the shepherd’s pie is made, it’s a fabulous meal for groups of people. Try this rustic classic at your next holiday gathering this season, and find the recipe over at Trinity’s Conscious Kitchen.

Easy Vegan Samosa Pie from Wallflower Kitchen

9 Super Savory Vegan Pie Recipes to Warm Your Heart (7)

Here’s another glorious recipe from Aimee at Wallflower Kitchen.

Who doesn’t love a good samosa? The spiced, potato-based Indian triangles are a favorite of many, although being deep-fried they aren’t necessarily the healthiest choice.

Aimee’s recipe, however, takes the traditional mixture of potatoes, peas, onion, garlic, and Indian spices and tops it with a vegan filo pastry. It’s simple, healthy, and oh-so-delicious.

This pie also freezes exceptionally well, so if you don’t like leftovers, you can make two smaller pies and freeze one for the future, or make it ahead to bring to an event or give to a friend. There’s lots of ways to explore!

Borlotti and Red Wine Pie Topped with Kale Mash from The Veg Space

Borlotti beans and chestnut mushrooms mingle together in this holiday showstopper from Kate of The Veg Space. The bean-and-mushroom combo is almost meaty, and the red wine forms a thick gravy that imbues every bite with deep, rich flavor.

Green or puy lentils add a whopping dose of protein, and the mixture of fluffy mashed potatoes and bitter, iron-rich kale makes for a topping you’ll have to taste to believe.

Find this hearty, warming pie over at Kate’s blog, The Veg Space.
