A plate of apple crumble topped with whipped cream is served on a wooden board. Two gold spoons are placed beside it, reminiscent of a Dutch oven peach cobbler. Red apples and a rolling pin are in the background, along with newspaper pages.

Dutch Oven Apple Cobbler

Author: Heather Painchaud
There’s nothing quite like the magic of a warm Dutch Oven Apple Cobbler cooked over the campfire.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 50 minutes
Course Dessert, Dutch Oven
Servings 6 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 2 21-ounce cans of apple pie filling
  • 1 15.25-ounce package of spice cake mix
  • ¾ cup butter melted

Instructions
 

  • Line your cast iron Dutch oven with parchment paper to make cleanup a breeze.
  • Empty the apple pie filling into the lined Dutch oven.
  • Sprinkle the dry spice cake mix evenly over the apples and press down firmly.
  • Pour the melted butter evenly over the cake mix, ensuring it's mostly covered. It's okay if some dry mix peeks through around the edges.
  • Place the lid on the Dutch oven and bake the cobbler over hot coals for about 50 minutes.
  • Dish up the warm cobbler with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon or brown sugar.
