By: AnaJ930
"I was looking for a different way to serve fruit, and it just popped into my head! Why not use fruit skewers?"

Apple Butter

It's hard to find any apple butter, let alone good apple butter in the grocery store these days. Making apple butter is a great way to preserve the fruits of an apple harvest. In contrast to what the name implies, there is no "butter" in apple butter. The name comes from its smooth and buttery texture. Apple butter is delicious on buttered toast.

No-Cook Tomato Sauce Pasta
