Steps:
- prep your apple and place in a small bowl so the hole through the core is up.
- fill hole with sugar and cinnamon, can also add or substitute pumpkin/apple pie spice or cloves. add raisins if you like, drizzle of maple syrup, whatever.
- wrap tightly over the bowl with good quality plastic wrap. it must be air tight or this wont work. microwave on high for 5 min.
- the plastic wrap will have made a big bubble as it cooks, this is normal. it works like a steamer to cook the apple fast. when taken from the microwave (WITH POT HOLDERS) it will shrink wrap your apple, it's kinda fun to watch. now keeping those pot holder on, carefully pull off the plastic wrap with a fork, mind the live steam.
- let it cool for five min, serve alone or with ice cream, crumbled cookies, or a bit of evaporated milk.
- repeat until you have no apples or your stomach explodes.
Tips:
- Choose firm, tart apples for baking. This will help them hold their shape and not turn to mush.
- Core the apples, but leave the skin on. The skin helps to keep the apples moist and flavorful.
- Use a sharp knife to score the apples. This will help the apples cook evenly.
- Add a little bit of butter or oil to the apples before baking. This will help to prevent them from drying out.
- Microwave the apples on high power for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are tender. The cooking time will vary depending on the size and variety of apples.
- Serve the apples warm or cold, with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include cinnamon, sugar, whipped cream, and ice cream.
