Now listen, partner â if thereâs one thing Bubba canât resist with his morninâ coffee, itâs a fresh, warm cinnamon roll. But when youâre out campinâ under the stars, you ainât gotta give up that sweet luxury. Bubbaâs Campfire Cinnamon Roll-Ups are quick, easy, and downright addictive â gooey on the inside, golden on the outside, and smellinâ so good itâll make your tent neighbors jealous.
All you needâs a few simple ingredients, a stick (or a skewer), and a campfire thatâs humminâ just right.
đȘ” Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (or biscuit dough if youâre old-school)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- Œ cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- Optional: powdered sugar or icing for drizzlinâ
- Optional: wooden sticks or roasting skewers
đ„ Directions
Step 1: Get That Fire Ready
Build yourself a good, steady campfire with glowing coals â you donât need big flames for this one. Set a grate over it or grab a few long skewers or clean roasting sticks.
Step 2: Mix the Sweet Stuff
In a bowl or a zip bag, mix together your sugar and cinnamon. Thatâs your rollinâ mix â Bubba calls it âsweet campfire dust.â
Step 3: Roll âEm Up
Pop open that crescent roll can (Bubba swears itâs the best sound in the world). Take each triangle of dough and roll it around your stick â start at the wide end and twist it up toward the tip.
Brush the dough with melted butter, then roll it in your cinnamon-sugar mix till itâs good and coated.
Step 4: Roast âEm Slow
Hold your roll-ups over the fire, rotatinâ slowly so they cook even. Youâll see âem puff up and turn golden brown in about 5â8 minutes.
If youâre usinâ a skillet or grate, just lay âem on foil and flip halfway through.
When the doughâs cooked through and the outsideâs caramelized, theyâre ready for glory.
Step 5: Sweeten the Deal
Drizzle a little icing or powdered sugar on top if youâve got some handy. Or just eat âem hot and plain â Bubba says theyâre perfect either way.
â Bubbaâs Tips
- Add a few chopped pecans to your cinnamon sugar for a nutty crunch.
- Got marshmallows? Wrap a crescent around one before cookinâ for a gooey surprise.
- Serve with coffee or cocoa for a real country breakfast treat.
đ§ Storage
If by some miracle youâve got leftovers, wrap âem in foil and keep âem for the next morninâ. Just warm near the coals â theyâll crisp right back up.
â€ïž Bubbaâs Final Word
âNow thatâs what I call campfire livinâ â a warm cinnamon roll in one hand, coffee in the other, and nothinâ but woods and sunshine in sight. Simple pleasures, thatâs what itâs all about.â
