over the years, off and on, I've made many attempts at trying to bake things on the stovetop, using various contraptions to hold in the heat. I finally baked a tiny loaf of bread, about the size of a hamburger bun, using some inch-thick pieces of broken tile on the bottom of a porcelain-coated steel pot, with a pyrex bowl on top of the tiles with the dough, and the glass top of the pot with the steam vent covered with a stainless bolt and nut. heated it for 15 minutes on high, turned it off, and went out for maybe a half hour in case the pyrex exploded. came back and it was baked through! success! I should be posting at WikiHow eventually.
