Why We Love These Desserts

You will love being able to serve your favorite camping desserts when camping. It’s actually so easy to make these campfire desserts. They are so delicious it might just be the best part of camping!

If you are wondering how to bake while camping, my favorite method is a Dutch oven. This can be placed directly on hot coals or a camp stove. 

If you have a Dutch oven, you can bake bread, cakes and pies for dessert! Another option is to use a portable camping oven or cast iron pan.
