How To Make
Step 1. Prepare Your Heat Get your camping fire starters and wood ready for cooking or get your charcoal briquettes prepared … whichever you want to use works but for baking I personally like the consistency of heat that comes from briquettes.
You will be baking this bread in a pre-heated 10-inch camp Dutch oven at 350 degrees. If you are not sure how many coals you will need, our Dutch oven temperature chart has the answers.
Step 2. Prepare The Cinnamon And Sugar Mixture. In a small bowl, you’ll combine the cinnamon and sugar.

Camp Cooking Tip: I like to pre-measure and mix my dry ingredients at home, then just transport to the campsite in a tightly sealed food storage container.
Step 3. Combine The Flour Mixture. In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, pecans and raisins.
Step 4. Combine The Egg Mixture And Mix With Flour Mixture. In a medium size bowl, mix the egg, evaporated milk and vegetable oil. Now, add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and stir until just moistened.
Step 5. Add Batter To Dutch Oven. Pour half the batter into the pre-heated Dutch oven. Sprinkle with half the cinnamon sugar mixture. Then pour the remaining batter into the pot. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar mixture on top.
Camp Cooking Tip: Line your Dutch oven with parchment paper or Dutch oven liners to make cleanup easier … plus, you can lift Dutch oven baked goods out of oven with parchment “handles” to cool slightly before slicing.

Step 6. Bake The Bread. Bake for approximately 40-50 minutes … check for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center … when it comes out clean, the bread is done baking.
