Ham and Cheese Toastie
If you are looking for a simple make yourself meal look no further than this easy Ham and Cheese Toastie sandwich cooked in a pie iron.
Popular with kids, this campfire pop tart toastie makes a quick and easy, cook yourself breakfast while camping.
This recipe uses a basic bread sandwich with peanut butter and jelly (jam) filling, and after being toasted it is topped with the cliche icing squiggle from a plastic bag.
Once the basic recipe is mastered it can be tweaked up by exchanging the bread for raisin loaf, cinnamon bread, or even slices of cake. The jam can be swapped for your favorite flavors.
1/2 cup icing sugar (confectioners sugar)
water, as needed
2 slices white bread
raspberry jam
peanut butter
square pie iron
Add the icing sugar (confectioners sugar) to the plastic bag along with a small amount of water, mix until smooth. Add more water if necessary, it is better to start off with not enough. Seal the bag and put it aside until needed.
Preheat the pie iron.
Make a peanut ‘butter and jelly’ sandwich using the bread, raspberry jam, and peanut butter.
Toast the sandwich over coals until golden brown on both sides, then carefully remove from the pie iron.
Cut a small corner off the corner of the bag then drizzle the icing back and forth to create a pattern reminiscent of commercial pop tarts.
Warning: Check the temperature of the jam in the center of the camping pop tart before eating so you don’t burn your mouth.
