After watching Shug's video, not entirely scientific but a good apples to apples comparison, I was impressed by how the non bunt pan cooked versus the bunt pan.

I will try this in the not too distant future as I can see some near adaptations of good ole southern biscuits for breakfast. Now to just dehydrate some livermush.

The principal behind the baking is the same as an oven. Keep the cooking pan away from the heat. In college we had a deep electric skillet where we would take three metal nuts and place them in the bottom of the skillet. We could cook pot pies like you would in a oven. The heat would travel thru the nuts to the pot pies and only burn three small areas. A small price to pay for a cheap meal. I made a hobo stove from a Ikea utensil drainer. I found a stainless bowl at a surplus store and ground the bottom down to where the disk would drop into the container. I added three small nuts and bolts to make a place for the disk to ride on. This disk became the bottom of my oven. I took some metal skewers, cut to length to stick through the holes in the container to position my baking pan above the disk. Took a little while to bake but it works and the weight is minimal.
I do like zelph' alcohol stove. It is much more compact than my hobo stove. And a whole lot less fuss.
