Can You Make Desserts in the Oven Instead of a Deep Covered Baker?

[mmmsarah3]

Can you make it in the oven? My host's microwave is too small. She wants me to make a dessert in the DCB though. Any suggestions if it doesnt work?

What about Baked Apples with a crumb topping made in the MFP??

Yes, you can make desserts in the oven instead of using the Deep Covered Baker (DCB). Here are some suggestions for making desserts in the oven:1. Cheesecake: Instead of making a cheesecake in the DCB, you can make it in a regular round cake pan or springform pan. Just make sure to line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper for easy removal. Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 45 minutes to an hour, or until the center is set.2. Brownies: Use a regular 9x13 inch baking pan to make brownies in the oven. Follow your favorite brownie recipe and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.3. Apple Crisp: Use a 9x13 inch baking dish to make apple crisp in the oven. Layer sliced apples in the dish, top with a mixture of oats, flour, brown sugar, and butter, and bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the apples are tender.4. Chocolate Chip Cookies: Instead of using the DCB to make cookies, use a regular baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.If you don't have access to an oven, you can also try making a no-bake dessert such as a refrigerator cake, icebox pie, or no-bake cookies. These desserts require minimal to no cooking and can be made in the fridge or freezer.
