Look behind you in that dark corner.
A Dutch oven is great, but maybe you don't have one, this CAN be done in tinfoil, I have, but it's messy and requires extra thick dough.
1_ pre-heat your pan until a drop of oil sizzles at the touch and remove from heat.
2_Stir in your batter, wait five minutes, and return to low heat.
3_ wait ten minutes or until you see bubbles on the top of the pone.
4_Flip it. Give it five minutes and remove from heat, paint on the butter and cover for ten minutes.

In tinfoil
1_Grease up your tinfoil and make a container.
2_ Carefully spoon in your dough.
3_Carefully seal your foil and place over medium heat and rotate often.
4_After ten minutes, flip your pouch over, give it at least five minutes, preferably more, and flip it back. then remove it from the heat and let sit ten minutes, the residual heat will finish making it.
 
And just because I love you guys... fried cookies!
Cut out your cookies and dust them with a 50/50 flour and sugar mix.
Drop them into a pan greased with butter over medium heat for five minutes.
then flip.
 
Never bake using an open fire, it WILL burn. Only use campfire coals.

Here is another way of making biscuit (bread) using a campfire where you don't need a Dutch oven or tinfoil.
