How to Make Microwave Baked Apples

  1. Preheat your microwave.
  2. Core 2 medium apples (about 6 inches diameter) using an apple corer or a small knife, leaving about 1/4 inch of the bottom intact for stability.
  3. In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, and 1 tablespoon butter.
  4. Fill the cored apples generously with the brown sugar mixture, ensuring to fill each cavity.
  5. Place the apples on a microwave-safe plate.
  6. Microwave on high for 2 minutes.
  7. Rotate the apples and microwave for another 2-3 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the filling is bubbly. Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave's power and the size of the apples.
  8. Let the apples cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream!
