How to Make Baked Apples With Apricot And Walnut Filling Microwave
- In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup dried apricots (chopped), 1/4 cup walnuts (chopped), 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon butter. Mix well.
- Core 4 medium apples, creating a large enough opening to hold half of the apricot mixture in each. Peel the top third of each apple. Fill the cavities with the apricot mixture.
- Arrange the apples in a deep, 2 1/2-quart microwave-safe baking dish, ensuring they are not touching each other or the sides of the dish. Pour 2 tablespoons of orange juice around the apples.
- Cover the dish with microwave-safe plastic wrap, piercing several small holes in the wrap to vent.
- Microwave on high for 7 minutes.
- Let stand for 2-3 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
