Anytime we get to throw bacon in to a recipe our mouths start watering. This Bacon Cheese Pull Aparts in the Dutch oven recipe is easy, tasty, and oh so good! The pull aparts are great as a breakfast, side dish or a snack. An excellent way to use your Dutch oven while you are camping.
You can use any frozen dinner rolls, we prefer Rhodes, just as this recipe suggests. The recipe does take a little bit of prep time such as cooking the bacon. But we always just do that at home before we leave, cut it up and keep it in the cooler. You will also need to let the dough rise once you get everything in the Dutch oven. Just watch if it is really hot because they could rise much quicker. If you keep in the refrigerator or cooler, you can slow the rise to take overnight, which can work out great to deliver these a breakfast treat.
Dutch oven cooking can take some getting used to but if you do a little research and a few tests runs any one can make great meals with a dutch oven.
