Camping Recipe ~ Cinnamon Rolls On A Stick

This camping tip is an “oldie but a goodie”. We have made these since I was little but they always turn out great and are a awesome treat while  camping in the wilderness. All you need is a clean stick, and a can  of cinnamon rolls. I normally have the kids go on a nature hike and look for good cooking stick on the path. We then use a knife to cut the bark off and make a clean surface to cook the  dough on. If you do not have a stick you can just use a roasting stick. Open up your can of cinnamon rolls and start to unwrap it on your stick. Make sure it is  wrapped on there good so it does not fall off while cooking. I like to use the canned biscuits or rolls for this, because you can use toss then in your cooler for easy transport until you are ready to use them.

To cook, place over an open fire, twist or slowly spin your stick to help it cook evenly.  It is best to cook over coals instead of an open flame.  The flame will just burn your bread so it is best to avoid them. It took me about 8 minutes to cook each roll. But cooking times will vary on the thickness of your dough and the heat of your fire. Top with the icing that comes in the can, and enjoy!camping menu recipe ideas, cinnamon rolls on a stick, pretty amazing, camping hacks, dessert ideas for outdoor cooking

    We did! just have to be careful because the sugar can burn quickly — we kept them next to the coals instead of on them and it worked well (our irons are cast iron, not aluminum)

  8. Amanda Moser Ranweiler

    They make a roasting stick that would work for these. We use it to cook canned breadsticks the same way- they spray with butter and cinnamon and sugar

  134. Juda Ming

    Katie Thomas we need to try these next time we have a bonfire. They look m yummy.

  262. Emily Jackson

    Trying to think of something cheesy that would stay contained on the stick. Melted cheese is where it’s at. It would be cool to somehow make pizza sticks? Like roll cheese and sauce and maybe pepperoni bits into the pretzel/biscuit dough and then twist it around the stick?

  263. Mandy Jane Ford

    Your description of the poblano peppers is what I was thinking for jalapeños. Also totally also thought of mozzarella sticks and YES we still eat them. Mmmmm about the hot dog with pretzel or biscuit dough. Yum!

  265. Emily Jackson

    Haha lasagna! I like doing shishkabobs. With meat and veggies or just meat. Hmmm what else goes on sticks…mozzarella sticks? Oh wait I bet you guys don’t eat those anymore. Haha. Cookie dough sounds interesting but you’d have to wrap it in something to keep it from melting off into the fire. Ooh here’s a good one! Maybe like stuffed poblano peppers with cream cheese and bacon! It’d be cool to make frozen pretzels on the fire or something. Or maybe twist the pretzel dough around something (hotdog) on a stick and roast that? OH the possibilities!

  268. Mandy Jane Ford

    Totes! Hmmmm….what other things can we wrap around sticks and roast for camping? Let’s brainstorm. Cookie dough? Jalapeño stuffers? Lasagna? Okay maybe not lasagna.
