Made With
Potato BreadIngredients
10 Whole Eggs
2 Cups Milk
1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 Tablespoon Cinnamon
1 Loaf Potato Bread, cut into cubes
2 Sticks Butter
2 1/2 Cups Brown Sugar; tightly packed
12 Fresh Peaches, peeled and sliced
Special Equipment: 14-Inch Cast Iron Dutch Oven; Medium Sized Mixing Bowl; Long Wooden Spoon
Serves: 10
Directions
Step 1
Prepare a small campfire and allow to burn for about 1 hour.
Step 2
Preheat Dutch oven for 15 minutes over hot coals.
Step 3
Meanwhile, beat together eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon in a medium sized bowl. (Tip: You could prepare this in advance and store in a sealed jar or bowl until ready to serve.)
Step 4
Quickly dunk the bread pieces into the egg mixture to coat.
Step 5
Remove lid from Dutch oven and place a stick of butter at the bottom. Use the second stick of butter to coat the insides of the pot (using a long stick or skewer to move it around the hot pan).
Step 6
Melt butter in heated Dutch oven. Add brown sugar into the melted butter and stir with a long wooden spoon to combine.
Step 7
Once the sugar-butter mixture has begun to caramelize, add the sliced peaches and stir to coat.
Step 8
Add the egg-soaked bread cubes on top of the peaches.
Step 9
Return lid to Dutch oven and replace over hot coals beside the campfire.
Step 10
Bake for 35-45 minutes, rotating often, and adding more hot coals as needed. Check occasionally to ensure the bread is not burning.
Step 11
Let cool 10-15 minutes before serving.
