Baked cinnamon apples

I usually cut one into slices, put it into a microwave safe bowl, sprinkle cinammon and artificial sweetener, and then pop it into the microwave for a minute and a half! Can also add walnuts or pecans ;-)

Coke Baked apples
Core the apples and stuff with some raisins and dust with cinnamon
Pour a can of diet coke over and bake covered with cling wrap in microwave for 10 mins or cover with foil and bake for 30 mins
These are very good and few calories, tastes better the next day, coke adds flavor, pour out after baking the apples. I use one can of coke for 3 apples.

I've been baking acorn squash and putting the baked apple mixture in the middle and eating that for dinner. Apple-stuffed squash. It's magical. Seriously. My kids even love it.

I would HIGHLY recommend NOT using your microwave as it completely fries all of the nutrient value in the food. I kills everything, trust me!
-Sorry I just had to add that!

Here's how I make mine!
I core and peel an apple. Then sprinkle 1 tsp of raw sugar and cinnamon on top and put 2 table spoons of water in the bottom of the dish to keep it from drying out.

I usually use a covered dish with a lid to bake it in.

Then place it in the oven and bake on 375 for about an hour. It's only 100-150 calories depending on the size and variety of the apple and it is oh so delicious!

Good luck!

To me baking takes too long and microwaving just doesn't come out quite right. Therefore I grill mine! I put it on the highest place so it hits the heat but not the flame. Slice apple(s) and girll each side a few minutes until soft, then I sprinkle cinnamon and brown sugar on top. Mmmm

My *recipe* is to just slice an apple, put it in the microwave for 2-3 minutes or until the apple is soft, and then top w/ cinnamon, plain yogurt, and walnuts. It's like a warm apple pie ala mode but much healthier. :bigsmile: It's even better if you add some whole cranberries to the apple slices... the tart and sweet combo is awesome!

That sounds awesome! I'm going to have to try that this weekend.

i JUST made this a few minutes ago. i sliced an apple and microwaved it for a minute and a half with a sprinkle of cinnamon and brown sugar. then i toasted about 1/4 c of oold-fashioned oats with cinnamon, nutmeg, and spray butter in a pan on the cook top. I topped the apple slices with the oats and a scoop of frozen cool whip free. its was just like apple crisp a la mode. mmmmmmm

These are all good ideas... Too keep!
