I made individual chicken pot pies with every intention to eat a single serving, however, after one taste of the delicious crumble topping, I couldn’t resist having seconds. You can make these using a muffin pan, like I did, or cupcake size pot pies for appetizers. Enjoy!

These would be fun for dinner or make a great party appetizer. It's everything you love about chicken pot pie but in bite-sized form. So yummy!

When spreading the crust, make sure you spread it as thin as possible. If it's too thick it will taste a bit doughy.

How to Make Chicken Pot Pie Muffins

Step-by-Step

Pie dough:

Mix all ingredients by hand. This dough does not require kneading; do not over mix. Once ingredients are incorporated, cover and set aside.
Béchamel Sauce:

Heat a medium saucepan and add butter. Once butter is bubbly, add flour. Stir continuously for 2 minutes. Slowly add milk one cup at a time while whisking. Whisk until sauce thickens. Add salt and pepper to taste. Turn heat off and set sauce aside.
Filling:

Combing cooked chicken and vegetables in a large pot. Stir in béchamel and taste. Adjust seasonings if needed.
Topping:

Mix all ingredients and crumble mixture with fingers.
Assembly:

Take a ping-pong size amount of dough and place at bottom of each muffin cup. Using your fingers, press dough down and around the sides of the muffin cup. Take more dough and fill in any holes.

Spoon 4-6 tablespoons of filling into each muffin cup and top with crumble topping. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until topping is golden brown.
