Notes, tips, and variations

 * 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.
