The simplest way is to buy the pre-made biscuts in the tube but instead oven puting them of the oven, wrap them around a stick or on a campfire hotdog cooker!. Hold them over the fire untill they are golden brown and not doughy!.
For pankcakes use Bisquik Shake 'n Pour Buttermilk Pancake Mix!. You can find it at a grocery store You just add water to the container and shake it!. Then pour the pancake mix on a skillet over the fire!. Makes good pancakes!
My family and I go camping in the summer and this is what we do and it is so simple!. I hope this helped and have an awsome time camping! =)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Follow the directions on a box of Bisquick for biscuits!. Take a small handful of dough, about as much as you would for one biscuit!.

Not a recipe, but a great idea that kids LOVE--take Pillsbury Refrigerate Bread Sticks and wrap them around the end of sticks!. Then, bake them by holding the stick over the campfire as if roasting marshmallows!.

do you have a dutch oven!. That wouldbe the best method to cook em in!. If not it'll be tough to get the top cooked without burning the bottom!. As far as a recipe I've allways used the premade stuff in the cardboard rolls!. It's quick and easy with out all the mixing mess!. The same for the pancakes!. Bisquick has the pre measured bottles!. Just add water and shake and pour it onto the griddle!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
