Applesauce Jello #84501 recipe by ketchupqueen
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. 6-8 servings 4 hours 15 minutes 15 mins prep 1 (3 ounce) package strawberry gelatin mix or cherry gelatin or wild cherry gelatin 1 cup boiling water 1 1/4-1 1/2 cups applesauce or 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)
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.
