How do you deal with fogged up windshield in the early morning???

On our recent trip, we had several mornings where the inside of the windshield on our 2018 Axis 25.3 was fogged up first thing in the morning. The defrost takes forever to clear it and really does not do a good job at all on the side windows.

Of course the moisture is likely coming from the condensation that builds up in the unit overnight. I'd really prefer not to have to run a dehumidifier if we can find some other solution.

My DH will start WW III if anyone so much as comes near the windshield with a cloth or paper towel to just wipe it. one of his quirks that I mostly know to just live with.

Somewhere years ago I thought I read about a product/substance that will keep mirrors (for my indoor horse riding arena) from fogging in cold weather. Can't remember now what it was. Something simple I think - ammonia, vinegar, some spray in the automotive department....

Suggestions, solutions appreciated.

For the time being, DH defaulted to leaving shades closed, running the engine while we ate breakfast and packed up. That did give it time to clear off, but seems rather wasteful of fuel to me (and beside, I doubt our neighbors enjoy the exhaust).
