For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a drizzle of maple syrup to the cornbread batter. If you don't have pepitas, you can substitute with toasted sunflower seeds or chopped walnuts. Feel free to adjust the amount of barbecue sauce to your liking. The torta can be assembled ahead of time and reheated before serving. Cover it loosely with foil to prevent it from drying out.
