Notes
My brownies took 2½ hours to bake at an oven temperature between 250 - 275 degrees.
Actual Cooking time will vary depending on the type of solar cooker, the weather, and the amount of food being cooked. For best results, and the shortest cooking time, keep the oven pointed directly into the sun.
Or bake in the regular oven for 30 minutes at 350 degrees
