Smelt and item and make it give you multiple of an item

[GamingTechnologies]

Hello, I am trying to smelt an Item and give me multiple for an output but its not working

 

{
  "type": "minecraft:smelting",
  "ingredient": {
    "item": "omegaores:omega_iron_ore"
  },
  "result": "minecraft:iron_ingot",
  "experience": 5.0,
  "cookingtime": 150,
  "count" : 16
}

I'm not seeing "count" as an available option for smelting recipes:

So what would the best way of smelting an ore and giving multiple ingots be?

[Draco18s]

You can't. The vanilla code for the cooking/smelting process is set to only generate 1 item.

If you want your ore to smelt to multiple ingots, have it harvest into an intermediary item that each smelts into an ingot.

What I did was convert my one ore into 16 single ores so the user and smelt them.
