How to Make Dutch Oven Campfire Cobbler
- Prepare your campfire or charcoal grill for indirect heat. Arrange approximately 15-20 charcoal briquettes on one side of the fire ring for indirect heating. Alternatively, use a charcoal chimney starter.
- Place your 12-inch cast iron Dutch oven over the coals or briquettes.
- Pour one (21 ounce) can of your favorite pie filling (apple, cherry, blueberry, etc.) into the Dutch oven.
- Evenly spread one (15.25 ounce) box of your favorite cake mix (yellow, chocolate, etc.) over the pie filling.
- Sprinkle generously with cinnamon (approximately 1-2 teaspoons).
- Cut 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) of unsalted butter or margarine into small, evenly sized pieces and distribute them evenly over the cake mix.
- Carefully place the lid on the Dutch oven. Arrange 10-12 hot charcoal briquettes in a checkerboard pattern on top of the lid, or scatter hot coals evenly across the lid for even cooking. Maintain a consistent cooking temperature, frequently checking for burning.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the cobbler is bubbly and the cake mix is cooked through. Check frequently to prevent burning; reduce the heat by adjusting the coals if needed. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
- Carefully remove the Dutch oven from the heat and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
