Answer 2

I've tried this and it's yummy...

Apple Crisp Pancake

Ingredients:
1 egg, beaten (2)
3/4 cup milk (1-1/4 cups)
3/4 cup chunky applesauce (1-1/4 cups)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (2 teaspoons)
2 cups dry pancake mix (3 cups)
1 cup quick oats (1-1/2 cups)
1/2 cup brown sugar (3/4 cup)
1/2 cup dry pancake mix (3/4 cup)
4 Tablespoons butter (6 Tablespoons)
Spray a jelly roll pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine the egg, milk, applesauce, vanilla, and pancake mix. Spread the mixture in the prepared pan. In a medium bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, pancake mix, and butter. Sprinkle the topping over the pancake batter. Bake in a 375-degree oven for 14 to 16 minutes.

Brandied sauteed apples are nice on top:

Sauteed Apples - these also are great by themselves as a side for pork chops or loin roast.

Ingredients:
4 Granny Smith apples (or however many you want)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup brandy (or rum, whatever you like)
Raisins (optional)
Pecans (optional)
Peel, slice, and core apples. (If you do this the night before, pour a little orange juice with a couple of Tablespoons of Fruit Fresh over the apples and drain before you toss with brown sugar.) Toss with brown sugar and saute until tender. Thrown in a few raisins and some pecans if you have them. Simmer for a couple of minutes, then cool slightly.

Ingredients
1 sheet Refrigerated pie pastry

2. In a saucepan, combine the water and pudding mix until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Whisk in gelatin; cook and stir 1 minute longer or until thickened. Remove from the heat and let cool.

3. In a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar substitute until smooth; fold in whipped topping. Spread cream cheese mixture over crust to within 1/2 inch of edges. Spread gelatin mixture evenly over cream cheese mixture. Arrange fruit over top. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until chilled. Refrigerate leftovers.
