Heat the olive oil in a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the carrot, parsnip, turnip, and rutabaga; sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until lightly browned.
Turn the heat down to medium and add the butter, apple, leek, garlic, tarragon, bay leaves, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Sauté for another 2 to 3 minutes until the leek has softened.
Add the vegetable broth and cook until the vegetables are fork-tender, and the mixture no longer looks wet. If the pan becomes too dry before the vegetables are tender, add more broth in ¼ cup increments and continue cooking. Set aside to cool.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Use a biscuit cutter or wide-mouth glass to cut the pie crusts into 4″ circles. You will get 3 smaller circles out of each pie crust for a total of 9 pasties.
Place the circles on parchment-lined baking sheets and fill each with a heaping tablespoon of filling. Then, wet the rim of the circles with the beaten egg, fold them in half, and seal them by either hand-pinching or pressing with the tines of a fork.
Brush the tops of the sealed pasties with beaten egg and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown and flaky.
