“This Blackberry Campfire Cobbler only takes 3 simple ingredients and will be perfect for a campfire dessert or potluck supper in the neighborhood.” – Midlife Healthy Living

Campfire Baked Apples – Gluten Free

“While the kids had s’mores for dessert, I made something more sophisticated for the grown-ups: campfire baked apples. So easy, and really delicious!” – Family Spice

Campfire Peach Crisp

“This easy camping recipe just requires a few ingredients. You need a can of sliced peaches, cinnamon graham crackers, instant oatmeal, butter, and pecans if so desired.” – Let’s Camp S’more

Lemon Blueberry Clafoutis

“What’s a clafoutis? It’s a French dessert that has a flan-like center. Traditionally made with cherries, I made this version with two of my favorite fruit combinations, lemons and blueberries.” – Family Spice

Dutch Oven Pineapple Upside-Down Cake

“Nearly fool-proof and dependably crowd-pleasing, it is a camping staple in my family.” – The Good Hearted Woman

Raspberry Nutella Mountain Pies

“I first started making mountain pies back when my college crew and I used to go camping every summer. You can use basic white bread (although brioche is particularly delicious) and whatever fillings you want!” – The Sweetest Occasion

Dutch Oven Pie

“Baking a pie in a dutch oven is no different than baking a pie indoors.” – Practical Self Reliance

Grilled Peach Crisp

“This would be a great recipe to take camping.  You could have them mixed up and in foil packets ahead of time and then just throw them on the coals.”– As for Me and My Homestead

Grilled Caramel Apple Crunch

“Best of all, the foil packets of Grilled Caramel Apple Crunch can be made ahead of time (if you’re camping or having a lot of people over).  Just put them in the fridge or cooler until you’re ready to cook them.” – Coffee With Us 3

Campfire Skillet Apples

“I’ve been making skillet apples for years, it’s the quicker method of the ‘guts’ of an apple pie, without the pie crust.” – Chaos Is Bliss

Grilled Banana Splits (Vegan)
