Applesauce Jello image

My mom made this, minus the apple chunks, when we were sick or as a special treat. The applesauce adds a great texture, kids love it, and if they don't like fruit, they'll still usually eat this! In fact, without the chunks or the cinnamon, it's a great treat for toddlers. I make it with cinnamon applesauce and the apple chunks as a side for holiday meals.

Time 4h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (3 ounce) package cherry gelatin or 1 (3 ounce) package wild cherry gelatin
1 cup boiling water
1 1/4-1 1/2 cups applesauce or 1 1/4-1 1/2 cups cinnamon applesauce, chilled (a small jar usually works just fine)
1 -3 firm-sweet apple, cored and cut into 1/2 inch chunks (such as Fuji; use more or less according to size and preference) (optional)

Steps:

  • Dissolve gelatin into boiling water in a LARGE bowl (you're going to want the room when you add the other ingredients to prevent splashing).
  • Add applesauce all at once.
  • Stir until thoroughly mixed.
  • Pour into an 8 by 8 casserole or a shallow dish, and cover.
  • Refrigerate until partially set (about 1 1/2 hours is good).
  • Stir in apple chunks, if desired.
  • Refrigerate an additional 1 1/2 to 3 hours, until set.
  • This recipe will not set quite as firm as traditional gelatin.
