Campers prepare
lunch at Two Rivers
State Recreation
Area in Douglas
County.
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
•
1 cup of sifted all-purpose flour
•
¼ cup of white sugar
•
¾ teaspoon of baking powder
•
½ teaspoon of salt
•
1 egg, beaten
•
1 cup of beer
•
2 tablespoons of butter, melted
1. At home, stir together dry ingredients in a zip-top bag.
2. At camp, combine dry and wet ingredients. Prepare your
heat source, such as coals — burning pinecones also are
great for this type of fast cooking. Spray cooking surface,
such as a turned-over Dutch oven lid or a skillet, with Pam,
or use butter. Then pour pancake batter onto the lid. Wait for
bubbles to form on the surface and then flip.
