How to Make Baked Apples In Microwave
- Wash and core 2-4 medium apples (e.g., Honeycrisp, Fuji, or Gala).
- Make a shallow cut in the skin completely around each apple, about one inch from the bottom. This prevents the skin from shrinking during cooking.
- Place apples in a microwave-safe glass baking dish or individual custard cups.
- In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon butter, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Fill the core of each apple with 1 tablespoon of the brown sugar-butter-cinnamon mixture.
- Cover the baking dish or individual cups with wax paper or microwave-safe plastic wrap.
- Microwave on high for 10-14 minutes (or 2-3 minutes per apple for single-serving) or until the apples are tender. Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave and the size of the apples.
- Let stand, covered, for 3 minutes to allow the apples to cool slightly and the flavors to meld.
- Serve warm and enjoy! Optional: Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
