I made the apple crisp in the cake pan recommended by instapot It was great; however maybe you should only make it if you have company. There are only two of us. I left the apple crisp in the cake pan and refrigerated it The next day the cake was as hard as cement.
Is there any resolution for this?

Serve the leftovers warm. Slightly heat in the microwave and the apple crisp is good to go again. Like you, we only have 2 people, so most of our recipes I cut in half. Funny though, my mom always likes her crisps warm/hot, my husband likes his chilled. Good luck.
