Notes

For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes or chopped fresh basil before baking.If you don’t have a Bundt pan, a regular round baking dish works just as well—just make sure it’s well-greased.Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container and reheated in the oven for 5-7 minutes to restore crispiness.
