How do you know?  They're waste heat, so this is an afiyah pechusa.
What's wrong with sun-baked bread?  That it's not a derech afiyah.
Baking in waste heat is also not derech afiyah, so how do we know that
the same din doesn't apply.  Ka mashma lan that it doesn't, and the
matzos are still hamotzi and still kosher for the mitzvah.
