Decided to try out my Swedish army svea alcohol stove with my mors pot and a small fry pan to do a little baking. Was an add water only muffin mix took I'd guess maybe 3 to 4 ounces of alcohol to fully bake it tough time estimate bout 20 minutes. Came out really good to. Let's see any ways that you've done baking. Same idea works well over a white gas stove to.

That is an awesome idea. I bet I could do the same thing on a smaller scale using an old tuna fish can and my titanium lidded pot. Thanks for posting that along with the pics.

Yep Carl just make sure it has some air space. I've also used it in my Stanley pot to if you have a small piece of a cookie sheet cut to the size of your pot you can bake real bread cookies or biscuits directly on the sheet. Just make sure you have enough fuel if using liquid fuel it's hungry for it

Pretty cool...I wonder how much gas it would take on a canister stove? Sp600 and tuna or cat food can....

Honestly salty I've not tried it on a canister. The only downside to baking is it's fuel hungry. Could be alright for a weekend trip. I've done it with good results on my Coleman peak one. Helps to be able to regulate the heat output.

What kind of pan are ya using? Bet ya could make one out of some aluminum foil

Planned to try a tuna can but not really worth the effort as my pot is to small for a decent size muffin...

Could probably line your pot with some tin foil stand upright should work alright. I've used the old army canteens to bake in that way before works pretty well to

Do I need to space muffin off bottom of pot with rocks etc?

Yep a bit of space is needed even better if you get some space on the sides to so it doesn't burn. Turn the pot or the baking vessel inside a few times during the baking gives even heat. Especially if one side of the pan has any wind on it

I've been using the silicone baking cups. In my very small pot I can fit two regular size muffin cups or one jumbo muffin cup. They hold their shape, clean easily (just water and rub sides together) and fit easily in the pot with all of my cook kit. I've been experimenting with my "white box stove" and made a simmer ring to slow down the burn. I can bake the two small ones with 2 oz of fuel. Preferably you have air coming up around the sides of whatever you use as an insert to allow even baking - like an oven.

Can ya post a pic of your simmer ring? Still need an idea for my army stove

Here's a picture of the simmer ring. It's a very thin connecting ring for maybe dryer venting? I cit it down to the height of my stove and then notched it to allow enough air in.
Other picture shows my full cooking set up. Strip of foil coiled up to support the foil circle for baking. Two silicone baking cups, an insulated mug, extra foil wind screen, small plastic measure or dipping cup. As well as pot, lid, lighter, stove, spoon and net bag. All fits together 15 1/4 oz. Not the lightest but pretty versatile.

What did you put under baking cups?

I folded aluminum foil into a strip about 1" wide and 8" long then curled it into a spiral/curl in the bottom of the pot. This supports the "shelf" of light tin. I cut it in a circle and then scored a grid on it and putting a small puncture in each square, letting the heat up through. You could also use a circle af wire mesh.

Take a piece of aluminum foil and fold it about 4 times and makes a strip and then curl it up in the bottom of pan. I guess you could unfold it to use as a plate if needed.
The "oven shelf" is a little stiffer piece of foil, cut into a circle to fit inside the pot. I just poked holes in it. You could use some wire mesh as well.

A cut down piece of a cooling rack to your pot works well for a rack to. Especially if you lay the pot on it's side as I did

I don't trust any of my pots to stand up to dry baking, so I steam bake. The stuff doesn't get a nice crust but it's still tasty.

I've tried steam baking it does work well. Also I have heard people floating silicon cups in their tea kettles to bake in.
