Dutch Oven Cobbler

From Auntie's Cook Book

Ingredients

  • 2 Cans of fruit pie filling, canned peaches, or canned pineapple
  • 1 box of Yellow Cake Mix- possibly 2 boxes if your dutch oven is larger (12 inch)
  • 1 stick of butter, sliced into pats
  • 1 can of 7-Up, or Sprite

Directions

  1. Prepare about 28-30 coals so that they are ready to cook on
  2. Oil your dutch oven well before starting
  3. Open both cans of fruit filling and pour into the bottom of the dutch oven
  4. Spread the dry cake mix evenly over top of the filling. A larger dutch oven may require more than 1 box
  5. Spread the pats of butter evenly over the top of the cake mix
  6. Pour the soda pop over the entire mixture.
    • DO NOT STIR THE INGREDIENTS!
  7. Put the lid on the Dutch oven and place on about 12-14 coals, spread evenly under the oven.
  8. Place the remaining 14 hot coals on top of the Dutch oven lid.
  9. Bake for about 20 minutes. Then rotate the oven a half turn. Bake another 20 minutes and then check the top of the cake. It should be a nice baked brown color and will have the fruit juices bubbling up through. If it does not seem done, let it bake for another 15 minutes and check again. With all of the moist ingredients it is not likely you will burn this recipe.

Once done, just scoop into a bowl with some ice cream!
