Notes
- Make sure to use an oven safe pan. You want a pan that is all metal that can go into an oven.
- Remove the pan from the oven using oven mitts or similar heat protection. If the handle of a pan goes in the oven, it will be hot!
- This recipe calls for apple cider, like the drink, not apple cider vinegar. Make sure you have the right ingredient!
