Backpacking Biscuits

It's a fairly simple affair to make biscuits on the trail - provided you find a biscuit mix that doesnt require eggs.  Powdered milk might make them taste a little better, but is not necessary.  What is important is to bring two small muffin tins you can put face to face with the mix inside, then place them in another pot with a lid - basically making a small oven.  You need to attend these closely, making sure the flame doesnt get too high and burn them.

I often bring honey along to smother the warm biscuits, and along with some coffee have an very fine wilderness breakfast.  I of course share some with Ben and Maggie, who do a good job cleaning up the pans.
