Cinnamon Apple Campfire Pancakes
Fluffy, cinnamon-spiced pancakes studded with diced apples, cooked to golden perfection on a campfire griddle. This family favorite is a treat for cool mornings under the pines.

Instructions

Notes
Pack dry mix in a zipper bag and add wet ingredients at camp for less mess. Use a campfire grate for even heat under the griddle or skillet.
