Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. For freezing, wrap individual slices in plastic wrap and freeze for up to a month. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes to maintain the flaky crust. For a twist, you can add chocolate chips or different fruits.
