Citrus is great to take camping – it is robust against all that 4X4 touring and can last a long time out of the fridge. I’m a bit of a sucker (pun intended) for a sweet and tangy dessert combination, but nothing leaves me more sour than a big pile of baking dishes – especially when I am camping. This recipe is so quick and easy, you’ll be back in the camp chair wondering what drink to put that extra slice of lemon into in no time.
Pre-crushing biscuits at home
This is the easiest approach. A day or two before you leave for camping, break the biscuits into a food processor and chop to a fine crumb. Add the coconut (this does not need to be processed) and pour into a sandwich-size snaplock bag.
Crushing biscuits at camp
A little more work, but this can be quite satisfying to release some tension. Break the biscuits into smaller pieces by hand and put into a plastic bag. Expel all the air and wrap in a tea towel. Get the hammer from the peg bag and crush away – but don’t go all Ninja Warrior on it as you may split the bag.
