- Prepare the filling: Melt butter in a skillet; sauté chopped sage until fragrant. Stir in pumpkin puree, salt, caramelized onions, and goat cheese until well mixed.
- Roll out the dough: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll dough into a 12-inch circle on a floured surface; transfer to a lined baking sheet.
