In this article, we hope to offer you four recipes for tasty, sweet treats that you can make while Camping. Some of these will be conventional, typical campfire treats, others will not. We hope to bring you a diverse list of recipes from across the world. Some may appeal to you, others may not! At this moment in time, camping is the only vacation many of us are able to go on. The SARS-CoV-19 virus has, for most of us, restricted international travel. Camping, however, can still be a lot of fun, especially when you have sweet treats.

We hope that the treats suggested here will become your new go-to’s for your next Camping Trip, whether you go with friends, family, or just on your own.

Here are four ideas for tasty treats that you can make while camping, brought to you from across the world.

Payasam

The first recipe of our list, payasam, is a one-pot rice pudding which originates in India. This recipe, once the favourite of the King of India, is straightforward and delicious. This is one of my favourite dutch oven camping desserts, and it can be made with very few ingredients. Simply combine two cups of short-grain rice with four cups of whole milk and bring to a boil. After around twenty minutes, add a cup of grated jaggery, which you can pick up in most Asian grocery stores, six saffron threads, and half a cup of crushed cardamom pods. Allow it to cook for a further ten minutes, then serve hot. This is a delicious camp-side dessert that can be stored and eaten later, too. This dessert is so easy to make, it’s a surprise so few people actually make it outside of the Indian subcontinent.

Toasted Marshmallows

Could we have a list of campfire recipes without mentioning the quintessential campfire snack? Toasted marshmallows a rite of passage for any aspiring camper. Until you’ve had them, you simply cannot call yourself an outdoorsman or a camper. Toasted marshmallows are not a recipe that needs to be explained to many of you, but we will anyway. Firstly, you will want to pick up some skewers from your local supermarket or home supply store. Preferably pick up metal skewers with rubber handles so that the heat from the fire does not burn your hands. Then, you will need a huge bag of marshmallows. Yes, huge! Build a fire, then simply skewer four or five marshmallows and hold it over the fire until they’re toasted and melting! This is a delicious fireside dessert that can warm up your belly and make every camping trip fun. No trip is complete without them!

Banana Boats

Banana boats are another quintessential camp recipe. This recipe is like the previous recipe, quite straightforward, and very delicious. In order to make this, you will need aluminium foil [if you don’t mind cooking in aluminium], some bananas, and a series of sweet toppings and fillers. We recommend chocolate, honeycomb, and a syrup of your choosing [it can be fruit flavoured]. You could also bring some ice cream along in a cooler for this one – the ice cream will melt into the lovely fillings and it will be absolutely delicious. Simply split the peel of your banana so that it opens up like a book, slice the banana lengthways inside the peel, then insert your fillings, toppings, and syrup. Wrap the bananas in foil and put them atop a fire – you can also steam them if you want. When they are done, which should be about five or six minutes, take them out, add a dollop of ice cream, and get snacking!

Apple Crisp

Tasty, quick, and straightforward. Apple crisp is a snack everybody can enjoy, even at home. You need apples, granola, brown sugar, bourbon, and cinnamon. In a grilling pan, combine all of the ingredients and allow them to cook for about fifteen minutes. The apple should crisp up during the cooking and the bourbon should evaporate. By the end, you should be left with an absolutely delicious flavour combination that is both sweet and crispy. Apple crisp is a very warming campfire dessert that you can make very easily and quickly. Apple crisp will definitely make every single camping trip memorable. It is delicious, quick, and easy, and one of this author’s personal favourites. Because of the alcohol content, however, it may not be a treat suitable for young children, although you can remove the alcohol and use a liquid-based syrup instead.

We hope to have explained four tasty treat ideas that are a great addition to any camping trip. The tasty treats listed here will make every camping trip memorable and are absolutely delicious. We hope you enjoyed the read and hope you use our recipes.
