For Coffee:

This is a drip coffee maker that uses no electricity !! Boil your water 
and filler up.  Many coffee snobs think this makes the best coffee anyway.

For Toast:

I have test driven all commercially available camping toasters.  Most of 
them work well on a Coleman Camping stove which runs very hot, but only 
dry out the bread on the stove burner.

You can get down on your knees and use the broiler on your stove or:

Take an empty 5 lb. coffee can, cut both ends off, drill 5 or 6 1/8" or 
so holes around the rim on one end and lace some  wire back and forth 
through the holes so you have a grate.  Set this on your stove burner  
grate end up, turn the burner on high and it will toast just fine. And 
it uses no electricity.
