Thanks in advance!

, as a pampered chef consultant, I have a great suggestion for a dessert using the small oval baker that you can easily make and take with you to your show. How about a delicious fruit crumble? Simply chop up your favorite fruits, like apples, peaches, or berries, and place them in the baker. Then, mix together some oats, flour, brown sugar, and butter to make a crumbly topping. Sprinkle the topping over the fruit and bake in the oven until golden brown and bubbling. This dessert is easy to make, transport, and serve at your show. Your guests will love it! Let me know if you need any further assistance. Happy cooking!
