~ Dutch Oven Peach Cobbler ~
1 box yellow cake mix
2 (21 oz) cans peaches
1/2 cup butter
Cinnamon, to taste
Dutch Oven
30 pieces of Charcoal
12” Dutch Oven
Rub the inside of the Dutch
oven with cooking oil or butter. Or you can use a disposable foil liner made specifically for Dutch ovens - make clean up a breeze!
Place the Dutch oven over
approximately 10 charcoal briquettes or over coals on a flat spot in the fire
ring.
Once the Dutch oven is hot, pour
the cans of peaches into the Dutch oven.
Spread the dry cake mix on top
of the peaches and try to spread it out as evenly as possible. Sprinkle the top with a little bit of
cinnamon to taste.
Cut butter into even sized pats
(small chunks) of butter and arrange on top.
Put the lid onto the Dutch oven
and arrange about 16 hot charcoal briquettes or scatter hot coals over the lid.
Bake until done. Depending on how hot your coals or fire are,
this could be anywhere between 25-60 minutes.
After 25 minutes, check cake with a clean knife of toothpick, if it
comes out clean, the peach cobbler is done.
If not, add a few more charcoal or coals over the lid and check again in
10 minutes.
Serve with vanilla ice cream or
whip cream and enjoy!
