This is a pretty simple and quick dessert for your next camping trip. When I made it to take photos for the website, I used an aluminum foil dutch oven liner. Some people would rather not. Some people use parchment paper as a liner. I’ve made it each way. Since I was using a new oven that didn’t have a lot of seasoning on it, and I didn’t have a lot of time after our meal for cleanup, I opted to take the easy way out and use a liner in this case.
This has been a favorite at campouts with our Boy Scout troop, and our family. This cobbler is very similar to an apple crisp with a crumbly brown sugar topping when it’s done. It goes really well with some ice cream!
