The bakers face a steamy technical challenge without an oven, as Paul and Mary step out of the tent to leave the bakers with only a basic set of instructions and ingredients to test their baking instincts. For the perfect bake, they have to avoid a burnt bottom and a soggy top. And there's a mighty final challenge, using three different flours to create a huge showstopper centerpiece.
