I have a couple commercial solar ovens (Sunovens) and several cheap ones (Sun Spot) and both can bake cookies in 30 minutes or less.

I've done pork loin and chicken and chili and dozens of cookies, and cookies as far north as Eureka (you just need sun).

This guy would have done better to just set the pan down and walk away, return in 15 minutes.

If he'd have covered it with glass, the egg would have cooked even sooner.

You can totally fry eggs in the sun!
