- In a small bowl, add arrowroot powder and a tablespoon of cold water. Whisk to combine. Add gradually to vegetable mixture, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens. If your mixture becomes too thick, add a bit more stock, stirring constantly until you reach a desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in cooked chicken and herbs. Pour pot pie filling into a 13 x 9 inch baking dish, set aside.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
- In a large bowl, add coconut flour, baking soda, salt and pepper. Whisk to combine. In a medium bowl, add eggs, coconut oil, coconut milk, apple cider vinegar and 2 teaspoons of water, then whisk until frothy. Pour liquid ingredients into bowl with dry ingredients, and stir to combine.
- Spoon topping batter over pot pie filling in eight equal portions. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until filling is bubbling and topping is deeply golden and a little crusty. Serve with a garnish of minced parsley.
