What size pan???
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeletea friend did this recipe for us and I think it was an 8 X 10. I will confirm.
Hi-I guessed and used 9x13 and it was fine! Anything smaller probably would have been too small. Didn't have molasses so I used 1/4 cup brown sugar which brought a lighter flavor. Also used chopped apricots instead of raisins. I will definitely make it again and will probably bake just under one hour. The bottom was a bit crispy after an hour. Overall, very tasty recipe! I love trying new things!
ReplyDeleteThank you for letting me know and I'm glad it was tasty!
