The savory pie with pumpkin cream and bacon is a rustic and tasty dish, perfect for those who love autumn flavors.

This recipe is perfect for any occasion, even to celebrate Halloween with both big kids and little ones.

You can replace the bacon with cooked ham and, for a lighter version, ricotta with cream. In any case, it will be a success because, besides being good, it is very pretty to look at.
