Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
1 tbsp oil or melted butter
About ⅓ cup water (adjust as needed)
Sticks for roasting (clean and sturdy)

Directions

In a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add oil and gradually stir in water to form a soft dough.
Knead briefly until smooth. Divide into portions and roll each into a rope shape.
Wrap the dough around the end of a clean stick, spiraling it slightly.
Hold over hot campfire coals, rotating regularly, for 10–15 minutes or until golden and cooked through.
Remove from stick, let cool slightly, and enjoy plain or with butter, jam, or chocolate.

Notes

For a sweeter version, add cinnamon and sugar to the dough or sprinkle after baking.
Stuff with cheese or wrap around hot dogs for a twist.
Can prep the dough ahead and bring in a sealed bag.
