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!

Notes from the Test Kitchen:
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 to thick it will taste a bit doughy.
