Here it is in use:
Mmmmm, fresh cookies in camp.
I wish it came with a second shelf, but seems to be working so far.

If your idea of a big apple pie is less than 10" in diameter, than you are good to go. The shelf is about 10"x10", but the door opening is slightly smaller, about 9 and 3/4". I bought small pans to fit it so can only do small amounts at a time. That is why I would like an extra shelf, two trays at a time.
Also tried brownies but burned the bottom. Will have to work on that. Looking forward to warm cornbread with chili during winter camping.

$40 at Cabela's, but you can find it online for less than $30.

What about rigging a "deflector" out of an old cookie sheet or somethin' that you could attach to those "cutouts" on the sides that allow you to move the rack.

I'm not sure I'd want to bake cookies inside my camper in bear country. Have you tried using it on a camp stove outdoors in a breeze? Are the walls insulated enough to give an even temperature in those conditions? Thanks for posting about this gadget.

We camp about two dozen times a year and always cook something inside or outside, whether it is cookies, salmon, bacon, or whatever, even in bear country. I can count on one hand how many times I have seen bears in camp. The only time they have been after food was at a campground in Lake Tahoe. Even then some yelling and banging pans together sends them running. I think two people have been killed by bears this year. While this is traumatic for the families and gets big press, an average of 35,000 people are killed in car accidents in the U.S. each year. It isn't the bears you need to worry about, it is the drive to the campground.
I have not tried it outdoors yet (still waiting for DD to award me a Partner Stove ) As to its insulation, there is none and the heat distribution is poor. I am considering cutting a thin fire brick or pizza stone to fit on the bottom and see if that helps.
