Notes

Use plain pumpkin purée, not pumpkin pie filling.For extra flavor, add caramelized onions or spiced pumpkin purée.Goat cheese, feta, or gouda also pair well with the flavors.Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat in the oven to retain crispness.Customize with protein, nuts, or vegan cheese to fit your preferences.
