One of the greatest things about camping is the campfire. Some of my favorite things to cook are sausages, bean soup and grilled chicken. After grilling, we love our desserts and our favorite is the S'more. A S'more is basically a roasted marshmallow between graham crackers, with some chocolate inbetween,
A classic S'more tastes great but they start to get boring when you have had them for two or three days in a row. Simply add some twist to the traditional recipe to get innovative campfire dessert ideas. You can make a mixture using tiny roasted marshmallows, some peanuts, honey graham cereal, raisins and of course some chocolate chips. Toss the ingredients in a plastic bag and shake it to mix. Serve it in cups and enjoy the sweet and crunchy treat.
Campfire desserts are not all about marshmallows though. Many campfire dessert recipes involve using fresh fruits like bananas, peaches and apples. Baked apples make simple, tasty and healthy desserts. They are also easy to prepare. You will need a few apples, brown sugar, raisins, cinnamon and aluminum foil. Core an apple and place it on a square piece of aluminum foil. Stuff the core of the apple with the raisins, brown sugar and a pinch of cinnamon. Then wrap the foil around the apple and toss it on the coals to bake. Take it off the coals after ten minutes or it may burn. You can modify the recipe by filling the apple with some other kinds of stuffing. You can try using butter and caramels or even whipped cream.
You can also merge different kinds of fruits, cereals and nuts to make healthy campfire treats. Babies love treats like banana boats, eggs on toast, baked peaches. To make banana boats, you will must peel back a section of the skin from the banana. Take care that you do not remove it entirely. Then generate slit down the exposed portion of the banana. Gently pull aside both sides of the slit and generate a pouch which you can fill in with nuts, chocolate chips, peanut butter and marshmallows. You can vary the fillings as per your choice. Then pull the peel back over the banana. Wrap the banana in aluminum foil and let it roast on the coals. After about ten minutes, take the bananas off the coals. Remove the foil and dig in to the warm, sweet, nutty treat. You can bake peaches in the same way that you bake apples. Pit the peaches and cut it in one. Sprinkle some sugar and cinnamon over the peaches and wrap them in tin foil. Then toss them onto the coals and let them bake for some time. Let them icy and remove the foil. Enjoy the warm, caramel peaches. You can also make a fruit cup by mixing little bits of fruits like bananas, melons, grapes, apples, pears etc. Mix the fruit with some yogurt and serve fresh.
When you look up recipes for campfire meals, make definite to check for items like sticky buns, angel cakes, campfire muffins etc. They are simple to make & children will enjoy them for definite. You may even make your own pies over campfire. For this you will must bring along your some canned pie filling. Butter some bread & place it on a pie iron. Layer it with canned pie filling & place another slice of bread on top with the buttered side up. Close the pie iron & let it bake for some time.
There are many more wonderful campfire recipes. Change them up by adding your own touches and rest assured that everyone will enjoy the treat.
