Campfire Pizza Night: Quick Skillet Pizzas & Sweet Dessert Pies โ€” All Star Rv Blog
Cooking around the campfire is one of the absolute best parts of the RV lifestyle, but after a long day of driving through the Rockies or hiking along the Front Range, nobody wants a complicated meal prep. Fortunately, you don't need a portable pizza oven or an advanced outdoor setup to enjoy fresh, hot pizza right at your campsite. At All Stars RV in Littleton, CO, our family-owned dealership has spent over 19 years helping local campers maximize their road trips with practical advice and travel-ready rigs. Here is a quick, fun, and mess-free campfire pizza dinner paired with an effortless campfire dessert that everyone will love!

The Main Course: Cast-Iron Campfire Skillet Pizzas

Using pre-made naan bread, flatbreads, or pita pockets is the ultimate campfire pizza hack. They crispen up perfectly over hot coals without the hassle of raw dough. โ€ข Prep Time: 5 Minutes | Cook Time: 10 Minutes โ€ข Ingredients (Serves 4): o 4 personal-sized Naan flatbreads or pita breads o 1 jar (14 oz) pizza sauce or marinara o 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese o Your favorite toppings: sliced pepperoni, bell peppers, olives, or fresh basil o 1 tbsp olive oil (for the skillet) o Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes (optional) Instructions: 1. Heat the Skillet: Place a 12-inch cast-iron skillet on a grate positioned directly over glowing campfire coals (avoid high, direct flames to keep the crust from burning). Lightly coat the bottom with olive oil. 2. Assemble the Pizzas: Spread 2โ€“3 tablespoons of pizza sauce evenly over each flatbread. Top generously with mozzarella cheese and your choice of toppings. 3. Crisp the Crust: Place a flatbread into the preheated skillet. Cover the skillet tightly with a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil or a cast-iron lid to trap the heat. 4. Melt and Serve: Cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the bottom crust is golden and crispy, and the cheese is fully melted and bubbling. Carefully remove, slice, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning before serving. Repeat for the remaining pizzas!

The Dessert: Campfire "Pie Iron" Cherry Pizza Pockets

Keep the pizza theme going through dessert with these warm, fruit-filled dessert pockets baked right in a campfire pie iron (or cast-iron skillet). โ€ข Prep Time: 5 Minutes | Cook Time: 8 Minutes โ€ข Ingredients: o 1 can (21 oz) cherry or apple pie filling o 1 tube refrigerated crescent roll dough or white sandwich bread (crusts removed) o 1/2 cup cream cheese (softened) o Powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar for dusting Instructions: 1. Prep the Dough: Lightly grease the inside of a double pie iron or skillet. Flatten out crescent roll dough (or two slices of buttered bread) to fit the iron base. 2. Fill the Center: Spread a thin layer of cream cheese onto the dough, then spoon 2โ€“3 tablespoons of cherry pie filling into the middle. 3. Seal and Cook: Top with another piece of dough or bread, pressing the edges firmly together to seal. Close the pie iron latch tightly. 4. Bake Over Coals: Hold or place the pie iron over campfire coals for 3 to 4 minutes per side until the crust turns golden-brown and flaky. Dust with powdered sugar and let cool for two minutes before taking a bite!
