Categories Dessert

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 3

Ingredients

bread slices
cinnamon sugar mixture
seasonal fruit (sweet cherries, blueberries, raspberries, peach slices, apple slices or preserves or canned pie filling)

Steps:

Make sure the campfire is very hot with glowing coals.
Spray the insides of the sandwich iron with nonstick cooking spray.
Lay a piece of bread in each side of the iron and press it down slightly to make an indentation in the bread. Place a few tablespoons of fruit on the bread and sprinkle on about 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon sugar mixture. Lay the other piece of bread on top of the other.
Connect the two sides of the sandwich iron and press down, locking the handles together. Scrape away any bread hanging out of the irons as it will burn in the hot coals. Place the iron right in the middle of the hottest part of the fire and leave it there for about 2 to 3 minutes. The sides should be toasted golden brown when ready. The pie will be very hot, so allow it to cool for a couple minutes before eating.

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 to 10 pies

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

6 cups all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup shortening, plus more for frying
2 eggs, beaten
2 cups buttermilk, more if needed
Apple pie filling, canned
Cherry pie filling, canned
Powdered sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

To make the pastry, mix together the flour, granulated sugar and salt. Cut in 1 cup of the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add 1 of the eggs and the buttermilk and stir until it just comes together. Add a little more buttermilk if needed. Form it into a ball and refrigerate for at least an hour.
To make the pies, roll the pastry out into a large square. Trim the edges to make a rectangle. Cut into 8 to 10 long rectangles, using a butter knife.
Spoon a tablespoon or so of filling into the top half of one of the rectangles.
Use the remaining beaten eggs to seal the edges by folding the bottom half of the rectangle over the top. Then crimp the edges shut with a fork. Repeat with the other pies, filling half with apple pie filling and half with cherry pie filling.
Heat shortening in a medium, deep saucepan over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F. Fry the pies until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove and immediately drain on paper towels.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve.

FIRESIDE PIES

Fireside Pies image

I thought I would post this recipe for a group that I joined on "Just a Pinch" called "Camping Recipes and Ways you Can Cook Them". This is Camp Debelak (my parents camp) in Cooks Forest, PA and is very woodsy and beautiful there. The whole family enjoys their time camping. Especially the grandkids love to spend time with Papa hunting, fishing and sitting around the fire. This is the late night snacks everyone gets if they want one & of course they do! It is so wonderful to sit around the fire listening to it crackle and watching the fire burn. It is so beautiful and mesmerizing at the same time. I grew camping with my grandparents in Summersville, WVA and some camping sites in Pennsylvania too. My Grandpa used to cook all kinds of things over the fire and tell scary stories to all the children. Those were some really memorable days!!! I am so very thankful to God that my parents have a camp that they can go to and spend time with their grandchildren. Memories that will last forever!!! I hope you enjoy this recipe. Kim I posted several pics of the fireside pies and them being cooked over the fire. Look below the fire for the small pics you can click on and they will become the large pic for you to see. I couldn't resist a pic of the fire itself. :-)
