The first long weekend of summer is finally here and that can only mean one thing: camping season has officially begun. Whether you’re heading to the lake, camping with friends or simply enjoying a backyard BBQ, no summer night feels complete without making s’mores.
But this year, we have to ask: are you team sweet or team savoury?
The classic gooey marshmallow and chocolate combo will always have a place around the campfire, but savoury s’mores are quickly becoming the new must-try camping snack. Think warm, melty brie, salty prosciutto and a flavourful spread tucked between crisp crackers. Unexpected? Absolutely. Delicious? Even more so.
Here are two campfire-worthy ways to build your perfect s’more this long weekend.
Classic Campfire S’mores
You’ll need:
- Kinnikinnick S’moreable Graham Style Crackers
- Calerie au Chocolate Sea Salt Chocolate squares
- Dandies’ Vegan Marshmallows (try a flavoured option for more fun)
How to make them:
Roast your marshmallow over the fire or grill until golden and gooey. Sandwich it between two graham crackers with a piece of chocolate and let the heat melt everything together. Messy hands encouraged.
Savoury Brie S’mores
You’ll need:
- Favourite crackers or crisp artisan crackers
- Brie cheese
- Prosciutto or salami
- Salt Spring Kitchen Co. Onion & Thyme or Blueberry & Basil Spread
How to make them:
Warm the brie over the or grill until soft and melty. Spread fig jam onto a cracker, layer with prosciutto and top with the warm brie. Finish with another cracker and enjoy while warm. Smoky, creamy, salty and slightly sweet all in one bite.
So, what’s your s’moree style this summer: classic sweet or elevated savoury? Honestly, there’s room for both.
