Notes
  • You can bake this without a conventional oven by using the Dutch oven method. After filling the Dutch oven, cover it and place it on a bed of coals. Place additional coals on top. Use very few coals on the bottom and more on top.
  • Put a glass full of water in the middle of the Dutch Oven before baking to help it bake evenly, from inside and out.
  • Use any pie filling you want.
  • Serve warm or room temperature.
