I was craving a pumpkin treat today, but didn’t have time to bake anything. I decided to mix up a little pumpkin combination that turned out to be quite delicious. I loved how all the flavors blended and the raisins plumped up perfectly. Next time I have this, I might add some cranberries instead of raisins and maybe top it with a few graham cracker crumbs.
Easy Pumpkin Applesauce
1/2 cup applesauce
1/4 cup canned pumpkin
1 tbsp raisins
dash of pumpkin pie spice
dash of cinnamon
Mix all ingredients together and heat in microwave for 1 minute. If you use unsweetened applesauce, you may need to add a little sweetener.

I love this idea! I’ll bet it was really tasty
You are so creative… love it!
This is a really cool idea!
How delicious! I bet it would be really good with cranberries, too.
Creative…I am sure it was very tasty!!
this is so simple to make!! I’m visualizing how it would taste. mmmmmmmmm………delish!!!!!
Great idea! Definitely try the graham cracker crumbs – it was great on my “warm pumpkin pie cream of wheat” this morning!!
Looking forward to having the Maple Cornbread Muffins for breakfast tomorrow!
Wow, love the idea! Super simple too! Thanks for sharing Megan!
Creative Cat Meg! I love it. What did you put it on… anything or just eat it straight up?
Clever, I bet it was wicked good.
Two favorite foods!
Hmmm I was hoping this would give me some insight on how to make pear sauce….back to the drawing board!
Yum! This would be great on top of granola!
Now here’s an interesting treat.
This sounds great, I am looking for ideas to use up all my leftover pumpkin!
I’ll bet some fresh baked granola would be fantastic on top of that. Yum!
Looks delicious!
This is such a great idea. Yum.
Megan, you are so creative. This sounds so yummy. I too would probably add cranberries or cherries. Hugs my friend.
WOw that sounds great! I might need to try that combo with my morning cereal very soon!
i love the snowmen
and pumpkin in my applesauce… now there’s a train i can get on! (sorry don’t know where that came from… must be tired!)
I’ll totally have to make some of this
And back to your comment to me…I have family in Edison too! I grew up in South Orange (where Seton Hall University is) so that’s where I was this past week 
What a tasty idea! I sometimes bake with applesauce, and this would be a great and lean way to enhance the flavor in a batch of muffins
. I’d love to include your recipe on our blog, please email me if you’re interested.
Thanks!
