Notes
To store leftovers, let the pie cool completely, then cover tightly and keep in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can also freeze it (before baking) for up to 2 months. Seal edges tightly to avoid leaking. For extra flavor, add herbs like thyme or rosemary. Let pie cool for a few minutes after baking for easier serving.
