I am living in Marrakech and in our new place I don't have an oven, and don't really want to buy anything expensive as we will only be here for a few months.
I would like to make cakes/biscuits (and possibly bread), but is this going to be possible without an oven? I have a tagine, could I re-purpose that to make some sort of cake or biscuit?

I seem to recall that in Moroccan cities there are often 'neighbourhood' ovens where you pay a small amount to have your bread baked, because few people have their own ovens.
You cut a distinctive design in the loaf so you can tell which is yours when you go back to collect it; the whole system is extremely ancient. The ovens are usually wood-fired clay ovens, so you'll get a nice stone-baked result as well.
