Great recipe! The crust could use some salt. If you cook the filling ahead of time, it doesn’t take as long to bake.
You may want to include the info that these measurements are for a 6” cart iron skillet. For a large cast iron skillet you have to triple the recipe.
What if you don’t have a cast iron skillet? I have a stainless steel one
HI Kimberly,
Cakes can be made in steel bowls to form a domed shape, or vegetables can be baked to a golden brown, right in the bowl. Before using a stainless steel bowl, it’s important to grease the bowl thoroughly to ensure nothing sticks to the sides. Only use stainless steel bowls that state they are safe for use in an oven.
I hope this helps!
I agree about the pan size….. you say in directions a “large cast iron skillet” but dough is very thin …. certainly not like in picture. I will definitely double it next time. This recipe is for a small skillet
