    NOTE: I made this recipe yesterday for a gathering at a local street prayer house. I made it an 18 quart Nesco roaster which I usually use for my Thanksgiving turkey. I added 4 cups of dried cherries and 4 cups of chopped pecans to the recipe. It did not come out with a nice crisp crust on top, but rather more like a peach bread pudding. I realized this was probably because of my baking method. However, it still tasted wonderful and was a hit at the gathering. Transporting and keeping it hot was a breeze as I just took the whole roaster oven to the gathering and plugged it in. Thanks for the help! ...Johnnie
