Leek, Spinach and Chicken pie - NZ Facebook | Amelia NZ

Fathead Dough Crust

1 ½ Cups of Grated Mozzarella

¼ Cup Coconut Flour

2 Tbsp Cream Cheese

Herbs & Spices (I used 1tsp each of lemon pepper, garlic powder and onion powder)

2 x Mini Cake Tins, lined with baking paper or greased.

Put Grated Mozzarella, Coconut flour and Cream Cheese in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 1min. Stir and microwave for a further 30 seconds. (You may need to do this once more depending on your microwave).

Add in egg and spices and mix together until it forms a dough. Roll the dough out while it is still warm. If it gets cold just microwave again for 30 seconds at a time so that it is easy to work with. When rolled out you can line your pan/s. I used two mini cake tins to make two small pies suitable for a single serving. If you are using a bigger pan you may have to double the quantities. Keep some dough aside to use as your pie lids.

Pie Filling

1 Cup Cooked Shredded Chicken (I had some left over from a cooked one from countdown)

5 Frozen Spinach Blocks

Approx ¾ to 1 Cup of Sliced Leek

½ Cup Cream

¼ Cup Grated Parmesan

1 Tbsp Cream Cheese

Butter for cooking

In a pan or pot fry off the Leek and Frozen Spinach until soft. Remove from heat and set aside.

Rinse the pot and add in the Cream and Parmesan, let it come to a slight boil on a medium heat before adding in the Cream Cheese. Let the sauce thicken before removing from heat. Combine with the Leek mixture and Cooked Chicken.

Add mixture to your pie tins or dish and place your dough lid on top. Make some holes in the top with a knife or fork.

Now it's ready for the oven! I would suggest 180C° on Bake for about 30 mins or until the crust is golden. I did mine in the Air fryer on 180C° for 20 mins and then a further 10mins at 160C°.

Enjoy!
