Upgrade Your Snack: Store Bought Applesauce With Red Hots, A Fun Twist, It is a Simple and Quick Treat You Can Make

Okay, so the other day I was craving something sweet, but also kinda spicy. I know, weird combo, right? I was staring into my pantry, and my eyes landed on a jar of applesauce. Then, I spotted a bag of Red Hots candies in the back. A light bulb went off! Why not combine the two? It sounded crazy, but I was intrigued.

First, I grabbed the applesauce and dumped a big ol’ scoop into a bowl. I like my applesauce chunky, so it was already looking pretty good. Next, I took a handful of those fiery little Red Hots and tossed them in with the applesauce. I started with a small amount because I wasn’t sure how strong the cinnamon flavor would be. You never really know with those things!

I grabbed a spoon and started mixing it all up. The Red Hots started to dissolve a little, turning the applesauce a light pink. Kinda pretty, if you ask me. I gave it a taste, and wow! It was interesting, the cinnamon flavor was definitely there, but it wasn’t overpowering. I decided to add a few more Red Hots to kick it up a notch.

After mixing in the extra candies, the applesauce turned a much deeper red. This was more like it! I took another bite, and boom! That was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. The applesauce was cool and refreshing, and the Red Hots added that awesome cinnamon kick. It’s like a party in your mouth, seriously!

The Results

This experiment turned out way better than I expected. It’s such a simple thing to do, but the flavor combination is really something else. You could totally use this on other stuff, too. I’m thinking pancakes, waffles, or even just plain toast with some peanut butter. Oh man, the possibilities!

• Color: Starts pink, ends up a vibrant red.
• Texture: Still got that applesauce texture, but with a little extra something from the melted candies.
• Flavor: Sweet applesauce with a nice cinnamon punch. It’s a wild ride for your taste buds.

Honestly, you should try this. It’s a fun little snack that’s super easy to make. If you’re feeling adventurous, go for it! You might surprise yourself.
