No Fuss, Easy Camping Desserts

It’s that time of year to cook outside. We made this apple and blueberry crisp recently for a client. They were wrapped in foil and cooked by the campfire — so fun to make and tasty. #campfirecooking #applecrisp #fruitcrisps #camping #dessert #campingdessert #campfood #outdoorliving #outdoorlife #pie #campfire #outdoorcooking #fruit #whippedcream #foilpackets

The kids are outta school so you’re going camping! Growing up we went camping every Spring Break and every Summer. We ate so well while camping and ended each day with dessert. Here are some fail-proof, no fuss, easy and delicious desserts you can make after camping. AND you an prep these ahead of time, before going camping and store them in large ziploc bags.

No Fuss Apple & Berry Crisp

Serves 2-4  |  20 mins to make Ingredients:  Fruit “filling”:  3 Apples chopped Berries (Blueberries or blackberries) 1 teaspoon of cinnamon (optional) Pinch of salt Juice from 1 lemon wedge Crisp topping:  1/3 cup of soften butter 2-3 tablespoons of brown sugar 1/2 cup of quick oats 1/2 cup of all purpose flour Cooking spray (optional) Steps: Tear off a foot of foil to make a packet. Spray 1 side of the foil with cooking spray or rub with some butter. To make Crisp: in a small bowl, loosely stir together the tablespoon of soft butter, sugar, cinnamon, salt and oats. To make fruit filling: in another small bowl, toss berries and cut up apples with lemon juice, a sprinkle of sugar and cinnamon Split the fruit mixture between 2-4 pieces of foil (per person). Do the same with the crisp mixture. Fold the foil up to make a single packet. Tear off another piece of foil and fold it up over the packet (so each packet has 2 layers of foil). Put on the grill over the campfire or on a bbq and grill for 15 mins.
