Lottie Scotty Update #004-2018

When we updated / restored Lottie Scotty

[ #LottieScotty ]

we took out the stove and propane -

I've never cooked on the stove inside a camper 

1 - it stinks it up real fast - and 

2 - it's just a safety issues I don't want to deal with ...

 So I'm embracing the electric skillet as we're camping more - 

And TRULY, there's so many meals you can pull together with it!

So I wanted to see if I could BAKE in it -

Y'all may remember we used it to cook those little ham cheese party sandwiches during our first trip with her   - but that was really just a good 'heating up' - lol

 

We picked up this little muffin tin at a thrift store - 

and it fits perfectly inside the electric skillet we have in Lottie - 

So I mixed up a little cornmeal, egg and milk...sprayed the pan good with cooking spray, and put the pan on a little rack [pout of my instant pot.]   I set the lid on securely and set the temperature at 350*. Then just cooked until done - 

Note - they will not be brown on top [or maybe I took them out too early - ha] 

Also - I should've added a little oil or butter, but alas I'd left that at home and we didn't run to the store to get any until breakfast the next morning. 

Still. 

I LOVE that I now know I can bake - 

corn muffins - cupcakes -- what else? -

in the electric skillet!

How cool is that?!

 

This is fast becoming our 'first night' camping meal - 

rotisserie chicken, veggies, rice -- and now 

corn muffins or rolls!

Yay!! 

 Let me know how you use the electric skillet in new 

[and exciting] ways!!
