This recipe won second prize in the dessert category of Woodall's 1969 Open Fire Camp Cooking Contest. It's basically an upside down crisp, the bottom caramelizes when baked and tastes like a warm thick, peachy, oatmeal cookie. Bake it in your 12 inch camp oven with 10 coals in a ring around the bottom and 18-20 on top. Serve this hot, gooey crunch with your favorite ice cream or a big spoonful of whipped cream, from Woodall's Campsite Cookbook.

1 3/4 cup uncooked rolled oats

The wife made crock pot curry today for Sunday dinner. I tried this in a 10" DO and it turned out really good. I used frozen peaches that came off our tree last season and they made the whole thing a bit watery. The very bottom was still crispy but the rest had more of an oatmeal consistency. No matter, it was warm and with vanilla ice cream it was delicious!
