Baking while the power is out? The oven thermostat controls do not work during the loss of electricity rendering the oven useless.
During a winter storm power outage it was still possible to bake or should I say steam a cake. Basically the same recipe steamed in a metal pan over boiling water.
Completed cake less the frosting.
