Ingredients
  

Campfire Peachies
  • 16 white bread
  • 1 can (21 oz) peach pie filling
  • 0.25 cup cinnamon sugar Use cinnamon sugar to sprinkle over the filling.
  • butter Butter the outside of the bread slices.
  • powdered sugar Dust finished sandwiches just before serving.

Equipment

  • 1 pie iron

Method
 

Assemble the pie iron sandwiches
  1. Butter one side of each white bread slice.
  2. Place one bread slice butter-side down in the pie iron.
  3. Spoon peach pie filling onto the bread and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
  4. Top with a second bread slice butter-side up.
  5. Close the pie iron and cook over campfire coals for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crispy, flipping once during cooking.
Cool and finish
  1. Carefully remove the sandwich from the pie iron.
  2. Let cool for 2 minutes to set the filling.
  3. Dust with powdered sugar and serve.

Notes

For the crispiest edges, cook on steady, even campfire coals and flip only once so the bread toasts uniformly. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days; reheat in a pie iron or skillet until warm. Freezing is not recommended because the bread can soften as the peach filling thaws. Dietary swap: use gluten-free bread slices to make this treat gluten-free while keeping the same pie-iron method.
