Note

For a crispier topping, you can broil the artichokes for the last 2 minutes of baking, watching closely to prevent burning.

If the artichokes are very large, they may require an additional 5-10 minutes of boiling time. Always test for tenderness with a fork.

Serve immediately while warm. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently in the oven.

For a richer flavor, you can add a tablespoon of nutritional yeast or breadcrumbs to the stuffing mixture before baking.
