Here's a quick way to dress up store-bought applesauce...and it is equally good served as a side dish or a light dessert. Chopped apples and pears add texture, while wine spices up the mixture a bit. The recipe is from Mary Eckles of Kirkwood, Missouri. Ingredients:
2 medium red pears, peeled and chopped |
1 medium apple, peeled and chopped |
1/2 cup white wine or white grape juice |
1 jar (23 ounces) unsweetened applesauce |
ground cinnamon, optional |
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, combine pears, apple and wine or grape juice. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 40 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Place applesauce in a bowl; stir in pear mixture. Sprinkle with cinnamon if desired. Serve warm or chilled. Yield: 6 servings.
