I love these Pyrex baking dishes! I used a 7 ½" x 9 ½" baking dish for this recipe. It's great because it comes with a cover, so I can put it in the fridge.

I don't usually leave reviews but love these so much! Tick all the dietary requirement boxes! I sub the maple syrup for honey and leave out the chocolate chips. Thanks for this recipe!
