While strolling through Wal-Mart I found this small springform
pan which I figured would fit inside my mess kit pot. I had
intended to buy some paper muffin cups but since the pan was
only $2.86 I thought I'd give it a try.

I bought some blueberry muffin mix. Problem is the mix required
milk. I couldn't find any powdered milk. It probably would have
worked with water, but I decided to try it with vanilla pudding.
The mix requires 4 ounces of milk; one Snack Pack pudding is
3 ounces and the main ingredient is milk. I ended up adding a
little water.

Here's the muffin mix in the springform pan. I put some small
rocks in the bottom of my pot before placing the pan inside so
the hot air could circulate freely and evenly.
|
When doing primitive baking, one usually cooks with coals and
puts those coals on the top and bottom of the pot. I deliberately
cooked with flame and did not put anything on top as part of my
experiment. Trying to keep it easy... My pan has a tight fitting
lid: I think that's important.

Here's the finished result. I can't say how long I cooked it as
I had some trouble with my fire: it can be difficult to keep a
fire going in very small, contained space. Nevertheless, I think
it turned out pretty good! No part of the muffin was burned/scorched.
