Microwave Maple "Baked" Apples

SERVES
5
COOK TIME
10 Min

This combination of apples and maple syrup makes me think of autumn in Vermont.

What You'll Need

  • 5 red baking apples, cored
  • 1 cup apple cider or juice
  • 5 tablespoons maple syrup
  • ground cinnamon for topping

What to Do

  1. Remove a small spiral peel from the top of each apple with a paring knife. Place the apples in a microwaveable casserole dish, leaving space between them. Pour the apple cider over and around the apples.

  2. Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of syrup over each apple, then dust lightly with cinnamon.

  3. Cover tightly and microwave on high for 5 minutes, then turn the casserole dish and microwave on high for 5 minutes more, or until fork tender.

Notes

Serve with a dollop of vanilla yogurt, ice cream, or whipped topping, if desired. Decorate topped apples for holiday fun!
