Microwave-Oven-Baked Apples

from Family Features

Makes 1 serving
Take a few minutes to core and stuff an apple; then bake for just 5 minutes.


1     small Braeburn or Granny Smith apple, peeled
1     tablespoon butter
1     tablespoon rolled oats
1    tablespoon light brown sugar
1     teaspoon flour
    Pinch salt
1/4     teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3     cup apple juice
1/2     teaspoon sugar
    Freshly grated nutmeg
    Yogurt


Use a melon baller to core the stem end of the apple, then hollow a 1-inch cavity in the center.

In small bowl, mix together butter, oats, brown sugar, flour, salt and cinnamon; fill the apple.

Set apple in a small microwave-safe dish, add juice; sprinkle apple with sugar and nutmeg. Microwave on high until apple softens and liquid is bubbling, about 5 minutes. Serve with yogurt. Recipe by Katie Barreira, cooking newbie blogger.
