Cook: 30 min
Serves: 8
Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients
- •2 cups all-purpose flour
- •1 cup sugar
- •4 teaspoons baking powder
- •1/2 teaspoon salt
- •1 cup milk
- •1/2 cup butter
- •2 cans (15-1/4 ounces each) sliced peaches
- •1/4 cup sugar
- •1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Equipment
- • Dutch oven
- • Heavy-duty foil
- • Heat-resistant gloves
- • Large bowl
- • Whisk
Instructions
- 1Prepare campfire or grill for low heat, using 32-40 charcoal briquettes.
- 2Line the inside of a 10-inch Dutch oven with heavy-duty foil. In a large bowl, whisk together the first four ingredients. Add milk and melted butter, stirring just until moistened. Pour into prepared pan.
- 3Drain the peaches, reserving 1 cup syrup. Arrange peaches over batter; sprinkle with sugar and, if desired, cinnamon. Pour reserved syrup over fruit. Place lid on Dutch oven.
- 4When briquettes are covered with white ash, place Dutch oven directly on half of the briquettes. Using long-handled tongs, place remaining briquettes on top of the lid. Cook for 30-40 minutes or until cobbler is set and beginning to brown. Let stand uncovered for 15 minutes before serving.
Camp tips
