Blogger’s tip 🧀
For a perfect savory pie, prick the base with a fork before filling it, so it doesn’t puff up too much during baking. If you want an extra touch, add a sprinkle of Parmesan on top before baking: it becomes even more golden and crunchy!
You can replace the speck with ham, bacon, or grilled vegetables, and the provola with scamorza or well-drained mozzarella.

Of course! It will be slightly more crunchy and less buttery, perfect if you prefer a more neutral taste.

Yes, you can make it and keep it in the fridge already cooked for a couple of days. You’ll just need to reheat it in the oven or air fryer for 5 minutes.

Absolutely yes! Better to freeze it raw: take it out and bake it directly, it comes out perfect.
Can it be made in an air fryer?
Yes! Cook it at 356°F for about 12-15 minutes: super crispy and ready in no time.
How can I make it lighter?
