This could be adapted to regular baking! You could also be creative and use other fruits, BACON, etc.

Saw pictures in the other thread, this looks amazing! I don't have a dutch oven, can this still be made?

I dont think there is any problem with adapting it for regular baking. Just use a baking pan and I would use one with a cover and pull the cover off half way through to crisp the top.
