📝 Preparation Steps
1
The first step to making a shepherd’s pie is to make the mashed potatoes. I like using my Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes recipe. It’s the easiest way to make mashed potatoes, in my opinion. You can also cook your potatoes on the stove.
2
After you cook the potatoes in the Instant Pot or on the stovetop, transfer them to a mixing bowl and use a fork or potato masher to mash them with the almond milk, vegan butter, and salt and pepper. Set the mashed potatoes aside.

The next step to this recipe is to cook your lentils. I also like to make Instant Pot Brown Lentils for this shepherd’s pie. Or, you can cook your lentils on the stovetop using the directions on the package.
4
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
5
Then, heat up your oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté your chopped onion, garlic, lentils, tomato paste, and chopped sage for just a few minutes. Add the cooked lentil mixture to the bottom of a baking dish.

Lastly, spread the cooked and mashed potatoes on top of the lentils and then bake the whole thing for ⏱️ 20 minutes in the oven at 350 degrees F.
7
Let the shepherd’s pie cool for a few minutes before serving.
