TIL that show exists.
If they didn’t want to make the chefs actually use an Easy Bake oven they could have scaled it up. A simple metal box with one of the long sides cut out and a heavy duty heat lamp hanging from the top of the box would be a close enough approximation to the toy writ large, and knowing how to manage the heat (by moving the cooking vessel around) to ensure the dishes were cooked consistently throughout would be a key skill. It would be like baking with a broiler, almost.
