Campfire Cinnamon Roll-Ups
Delightful pastries made from crescent roll dough, sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar, and cooked over a campfire, perfect for outdoor gatherings.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup melted butter
Optional Toppings
- to taste icing (store-bought or homemade for drizzling)
Instructions
Preparation
- Start by building a fire at your campsite that produces a glowing bed of coals.
- In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon thoroughly.
- Open the can of crescent roll dough and carefully unroll it on a clean surface.
- Brush each triangle of dough lightly with the melted butter.
- Sprinkle a generous amount of the cinnamon sugar mixture onto each buttered triangle.
- Starting from the wider end, roll up each triangle tightly to form a spiral.
- Using a skewer or a long stick, slide it through the center of each rolled-up dough piece.
Cooking
- Hold the skewer over the hot coals, rotating it slowly to ensure even cooking.
- In about 10-15 minutes, the roll-ups will puff up and turn golden brown.
- Once done, remove from the fire and let them cool for a minute. Drizzle with icing if desired and serve warm.
Notes
For the best flavor, consider adding chocolate chips, nuts, or chopped apples inside your roll-ups. Avoid cooking directly in flames to prevent burning.
