Directions
1. Add a rack or some rocks to bottom of cooking pot and pour in an inch or two of water.
2. In a silicone bowl, mix together all ingredients. Add a tiny bit of the water at the bottom first to keep it from being dry.
3. Place bowl on top of rack or rocks and bring water to a full boil. Cover with lid. The steam will cook this muffin.
4. Bake until the center is baked and fluffy, approximately 15 minutes. Continue to check on it for readiness and also to make sure there's still water at bottom of the pot. You may need to add a little more water to the pot to make sure it continues to steam bake, since the water will evaporate.
5. Eat direct in the silicone bowl, or pop it out of the silicone bowl. Enjoy!

Just watched your YouTube video and this recipe looks delicious! Have you make this in the oven before? If so what temp and time do you suggest? Thanks Carolyn
Thanks so much for the kind words Carolyn! 😊 You know it’s funny that we’ve only tried making this in camp with steam-baking and never actually in the oven. We’d probably bet that 350 degrees F would work well. If you try it, you’ll have to let us know how it goes!
