Applesauce Graham Cracker Dessert

I accidentally opened a big Costco sized container of applesauce, not remembering that I had just opened one. Needless to say we had a lot of applesauce on our hands.
A long time ago I made a crisp/brown betty with applesauce and graham crackers that was pretty good.
I didn't have the recipe, but I found another that was similar.
The boys enjoyed helping crush the graham cracker crumbs.

I think it was a good tension releasing activity for Westley, look closely at his face.

We took the dessert to our Friend's Jenny, Ian and Zephyr's house to share after a homemade pizza dinner.

Westley and Zephyr really liked it. Will refused to try it.

Update: The next day I mixed in some of this with some sweet potatoes we had left over (my sweet potatoes, cook apple chunks, cinnamon,  and a small amount of butter and brown sugar. I either leave it as chucks or blend it until smooth as that is how Westley likes it)

Adding the applesauce with graham cracker crumb topping to the sweet potatoes made them really really good. Westley and I ate a bunch this way. I convinced (actually I forced) Will to try a bite. He ended up really liking it too!

Here's the applesauce graham cracker recipe:

3 cups apple sauce

1/4 cup sugar (white or brown. I used brown)

1/2 cup melted butter

1-2 teas cinnamon

2 sleeves (plastic packages within the box) graham crackers.

Crush graham crackers. Pour apple sauce into an 8x8 or 9x9 pan. mix in the 1/4 cup sugar (probably not needed if using sweetened applesauce). In a medium bowl mix melted butter, crushed graham crackers and cinnamon. Spoon graham cracker topping over the applesauce.

Bake 350 degrees for 18-20 minutes

For sweet potatoes:

Boing sweet potatoes for 30-45 minutes

Add apples (peeled and cut into halves or quarters) for the last 5 minutes

Cut sweet potatoes and and apples into smaller chunks.

Toss with a couple tablespoons of butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice.

Spread out on cookie sheet or casserole dish. Bake 375 for around 20 minutes

If desired, then blend with a blender or food processor.

To make them really good, right before serving, mix in some of the applesauce graham cracker dessert!
