This warm Dutch oven cobbler is one of our favorite ways to end a busy day of fishing, hiking, swimming or rafting. It's yummy with ice cream—and so easy to make! —June Dress, Boise, Idaho

Ingredients

2 cans (21 ounces each) raspberry pie filling
1 package yellow cake mix (regular size)
1-1/4 cups water
1/2 cup canola oil
Vanilla ice cream, optional

Directions

Prepare grill or campfire for low heat, using 16-20 charcoal briquettes or large wood chips.
Line an ovenproof Dutch oven with heavy-duty aluminum foil; add pie filling. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, water and oil. Spread over pie filling.
Cover Dutch oven. When briquettes or wood chips are covered with white ash, place Dutch oven directly on top of 8-10 of them. Using long-handled tongs, place remaining briquettes on pan cover.
Cook until filling is bubbly and a toothpick inserted in the topping comes out clean, 30-40 minutes. To check for doneness, use the tongs to carefully lift the cover. If desired, serve with ice cream.

Can you make a cobbler the night before?

Cobblers are best when eaten fresh, the day of baking. If you do decide to bake it off the day before, reheat in the oven to allow the filling to get hot and bubbly and the top batter to re-crisp.
