Solar Bread

Added: Jun 5th, 2008
If you have a solar cooker, bread will bake quite well in it. It takes a little longer (over an hour) but uses NO fossil fuels. You can in theory bake bread in a simple box solar oven, but it may take even a little longer. Preheat the oven by setting it in the sun until it's over 300 degrees. The oven will cool a bit once you put the bread in, but just bake it a bit longer. You can tell when it's done when you thump it and it sounds hollow. Yummy and efficient.
