Actually, the wife who is part owner of Adams Farm told me about this. She saw I was buying a few of their HoneyCrisp apples. The way she described them made me definitely want to give it a try. I also decided to look up some similar recipes in case there were any variations to consider.
- 2 apples, sliced - can also use pears!
- 1 teaspoon white sugar, brown sugar, honey or maple syrup (sweeteners can be omitted for a healthier version)
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Optional:
- butter, nutmeg, ground cloves, raisins, nuts
Place apples in a microwave-safe bowl;
Cover with another glass plate or microwave safe lid and heat in microwave for 1 minute.
Tip: Adding a little water at the beginning will keep them from being too dry.
Sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over apples and stir to coat.
Heat apples in microwave until soft and warm, 1-4 minutes more. Check on them each minute. They can be cooked at a lower temp for longer.
Serving Options -
- serve with ice cream
- sprinkle with granola
- bake them in a pie crust
- roll them up in a tortilla for an apple burrito
- Make an “Apple Bueno" - Pour cooked apples over all fried flour tortilla chips and eat like nachos
