Direct heat will crack your stone.

I've used a cast iron dutch oven for bread and that's come out well.

We have a pizza stone.

What if... I put it on top of our wood stove (it's larger than the soapstone
surface) and covered my roundish loaf of bread with an upside down pot?

Still looking for ways to bake using the wood stove.

I made cornbread over the weekend in the Coleman portable camp oven. The
oven didn't get higher than almost 200 degrees. I baked the cornbread for 1
hr 20 minutes and it was thoroughly baked. It didn't rise as high as it
normally would in a hot oven, but it was still good. Everyone was excited
that I made it in the camp oven on the wood stove.
