• You can customize the filling by adding other vegetables like cabbage or bell peppers.
• For a vegetarian version, substitute the ground pork with tofu or mushrooms.
• If you prefer a crispier texture, you can brush the lumpia with beaten egg before baking.

• Serve the baked lumpia as an appetizer or snack.
• Pair it with a sweet chili sauce or vinegar dipping sauce for added flavor.
• Leftover lumpia can be reheated in the oven or air fryer for a few minutes to regain their crispiness.
