When we were finalising the plans for our NextGen Caravan, one of the things we decided not to include was an oven. We are use to doing most of our cooking outside anyway. So instead, we bought a Weber Baby Q barbecue. So far I haven’t found anything that I would normally cook in an oven, that I haven’t been able to cook in the Weber.
My latest success were these Cornmeal Muffins. They are fantastic to have for morning or afternoon teas. They freeze well and can be eaten cold or warm them up a little and add some butter.
Below is the recipe, which is DOWNLOADABLE, so you can save it to your phone or laptop. We also made a video so you can see how well they turned out.
CORNMEAL MUFFINS
1 1/2 cups self raising flour
1 cup cornmeal (polenta)
pinch of salt (optional)
1/4 cup sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup oil
small tin creamed corn (300 gram)
1/3 cup grated tasty cheese
3/4 cup milk
METHOD:
Pre-heat your Weber (or oven) to about 190`. In a large bowl add all dry ingredients and stir to combine. Then add all wet ingredients and stir until just combined in together.
Give muffin cases a light spray with some cooking oil and then drop a heaped tablespoon of mixture into each case.
Bake in your oven for around 10-15 minutes. A skewer should come out clean if they are cooked.
I love having something to have with a cuppa or even to share with our neighbours when we are stopped somewhere. And of course, if you have kids, they will love them to.
Why not check out my recipe for Banana Bread in the Weber. It’s yummy too!

Huh! Clever. Fancy that, I would never have thought to “bake” on a weber
It’s amazing what you can cook in it!
I’m constantly surprised at how many things you can cook in Weber BBQs. My brother and SIL only do roasts on their Weber nowadays and (as they’re in Qld) appreciate that the house doesn’t have to get stinking hot with the oven on for hours.
I’m coeliac so not sure how GF flour would go but these look nice!
Another reason we didn’t put an oven in the van. I’m sure the GF Flour would be fine.
I love these and will be giving them a go when we’re next out and about. I’ve asked Santa for a BabyQ for Christmas…let’s hope he reads my letter. 🙂
Make sure you save us some 🙂
