This is a recipe that I learned from a Scout Master when I lived in Michigan. He taught us how to make it in a Dutch Oven for camping. No, I wasn't a scout, but he was friends with my dad and we lived in a house that had a bonfire pit, so we did dutch oven cooking there!
This recipe can feed 8 hearty servings! And can be made for under $10 (these are all things I keep in food storage, so I'm not sure of the exact cost!
Ingredients:
2 (13 oz.) cans of peaches (sliced or whole; whatever you prefer)
1 box of yellow cake mix
1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter
1 TBSP cinnamon
3-4 TBSP sugar
vanilla ice cream (optional)
Directions:
I like to use my 5 quart Le Creuset, but you can use anything that will hold a large amount of food! If you are making this in a fire, with a dutch oven make sure you line the dutch oven with aluminum foil, this will make for a much easier clean up!
Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Pour both cans of peaches in (I prefer to have my peaches bite size, so I cut them up to a nice bite size).
Sprinkle yellow cake mix on top. Put chunks of butter all over the top.
Sprinkle cinnamon on top, then sprinkle sugar on top.
Cover and bake for 30-35 minutes. For the last 2-3 minutes uncover and turn the heat up to broil, this will give you a nice golden top. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes.
Serve with vanilla ice cream (optional). Enjoy!!!!
