Mini Shepherds Pies Recipe:
Ingredients below in recipe card!
Start by preheating the oven to 425, then spray a muffin pan with non-stick spray.
Flatten and mold biscuits into each muffin cup.
These are quick to bake! Just 6-8 minutes until they’re a light golden color and they’re done. If biscuits have risen too much and won’t hold the other ingredients, press down the sides and bottom while still the biscuits are still warm.
While the biscuits are baking, brown ground beef in a large skillet and drain. Stir in the onions, salt, pepper and garlic and allow to cook together for a couple of minutes.
Add flour to the mixture and stir until blended to a paste, then add beef stock, worcestershire and vegetables. Mix all the ingredients together.
Make homemade mashed potatoes, or use pre made mashed potatoes and heat in a microwave according to package directions.
Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of meat mixture into each biscuit shell and top with equal amount mashed potatoes.
Sprinkle the top of your mini shepherds pies with dried parsley flakes. Place in oven and bake for 12-15 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before removing individual mini shepherds pies from their cups.
