Line a 9 inch pie plate with a pie crust. Set aside. Melt 2 Tbs. Butter in a pot. Saute’ the carrots and onions just until the onions are cooked through. Add 1/8 cup of flour and stir to make a paste. Add 2 cups of chicken broth a little at a time, mixing well after each addition until all the broth is incorporated. Stir in the potato cubes and simmer until the potatoes are mostly done. Remove from the heat and stir in the grated cheese and ham. Stir until smooth as pictured below.
If you wanted to add some frozen peas, you could do so at this point. I personally like peas, I do not however like having to pick out peas from my kids dinners. So I didn’t add them.
Pour the pot pie filling into the prepared pie plate.
Top with a top crust and cut a few slits in the top for the steam to escape from. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 15 minutes. The pie crust should be lightly browned. Cool for 15 minutes before serving.
