12. UPDATE: 10/2011 I have made this recipe numerous times and always add more apples than the original recipe calls for. It bakes down quite a bit, kinda like an apple pie does. If you are short on apples, downsize your baking dish and use an 8x8 and pile the apples high!
13. -if you add more apples, this will increase your baking time.
