Directions to make boy Scout Dutch Oven Peach Cobbler recipe

Step 1

Line a 12 Dutch Oven with heavy-duty foil. We totally skipped this in our brand new Boy Scout Lodge Dutch Oven and had no issues!

Step 2

Pour peaches into the bottom of one Dutch Oven. Spread evenly.

Step 3

Sprinkle the peaches with cinnamon.

Step 4

Pour the dry cake mix evenly over the peaches. Do not stir.

Step 5

Cut butter into small pieces and place on top of the cake mix. We forgot to bring something to cut the butter so I had to break it up with my fingers!

Step 6

Sprinkle top with cinnamon.

Step 7

Place lid on the Dutch oven and bake using 8-10 briquettes bottom and 14-16 briquettes top for 45-60 minutes rotating oven and lid 1/4 turn in opposite directions twice through the baking process…

Step 8

Serve in a bowl with a spoon so you can slurp up all the peach cobbler goodness. If you happen to have some ice cream, that makes it even better!

our experience making boy scouts dutch oven peach cobbler recipe

We found this recipe for cobbler from a local scout troop in our community. We have lots of festivals and fairs and it is common for the Boy Scouts to be serving peach cobbler as a fundraiser. In the community where I live, scouts are extremely active and contribute tons to our community.

When my husband and I first tasted it, I was waddling around 8 months pregnant with my second child at a local fair and we were both shocked how good it was. So shocked in fact that I made my husband get back in line to get a serving for himself because I decided the bowl of cobbler we were going to share was all mine.

Later we found out how easy the recipe was and it has been on our family tradition list ever since.

Getting outside with our kids is a priority for our family. Not only is it great for their health, but it is also great for their dispositions – and it does amazing things for our family connections.

When you get together with your family and friends this Thanksgiving, don’t let the fun stop at the dining table. Let’s be honest, any food you eat outside always tastes better. This Boy Scout Dutch Oven Peach Cobbler is no different. Cooked over hot coals, it is the perfect accompaniment to a day full of scouting adventure – or a day of geocaching, which is what my kids love to do when we go camping.
