Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 4 oz nduja sausage, casing removed

Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle about 1/8-inch thick.
