Combining two blogging events into one delicious dessert
I threw this together for dessert the other night and it tastes JUST LIKE apple pie a la mode. This could also be created with cinnamon graham crackers if you don’t have any cinnamon cookies. By crumbling the cookies over the warm applesauce, they warm up and soak up some of the applesauce. This is literally so good and so easy to make.

Heat applesauce in microwave until warm, about 45 seconds.

Yum! I think that sounds like a great combo.
Yum! I love rhubarb but not sure I have had it in jam form. I bet this is beyond delicious! Although to be honest my favorite way to enjoy rhubarb is raw with just a little bit of a salt…yum!
Have you ever tried making sugar free jelly or jam before?
I have not made sugar free jam. This is only the second jam I’ve ever made!
Beautiful!!! I love that you sent two kinds 🙂 For me it was a total excuse to make all different kinds! I’m sure they will love it!
Now THAT is an awesome looking jam!!
I love that gorgeous color! I bet it tastes amazing too. Beautiful!
I make raspberry-rhubarb jam every year, it is my absolute favorite jam!! Looking over your recipe I do not find any pectin in it. Just wondered if this was error, I am always looking for new recipes to try. the cardamon is something I have never used in my jams so I thought I would give it a try. Thanks

Nope, no pectin in this recipe. The raspberries have enough naturally.
