How to Make Microwave Baked Apples
- Preheat your microwave.
- 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.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, and 1 tablespoon butter.
- Fill the cored apples generously with the brown sugar mixture, ensuring to fill each cavity.
- Place the apples on a microwave-safe plate.
- Microwave on high for 2 minutes.
- 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.
- Let the apples cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream!
