For a vegetarian version, substitute the andouille sausage with plant-based sausage or sauteed mushrooms. Consider adding a pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon for extra warmth. If you don't have praline liqueur, substitute with a splash of vanilla extract and a tablespoon of maple syrup.

Serve immediately, garnished with a swirl of cream or a sprinkle of toasted pumpkin seeds, if desired.
