Just a favorite that I make when I want something sweet.

1 med apple
1 pat butter
1.5 tsp brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
.25 tsp nutmeg
.25 cup granola(optional)

Core an apple place in microwave dish. In separate dish mix next 4 ingredients and stuff into apple where the core was. Place in the microwave for 4 minutes. Top with the granola if wanted. Granola is optional so I haven't included it in the calorie count for this recipe.

    I usually use this recipe whenever I'm camping as dessert but I wrap it in foil and lay it near the hottest coals to get reflected heat to cook it.

    Good recipe and very satisfying for the sweet tooth too!

    Oh my gosh, I used to eat these for breakfast all of the time and I completely forgot about them!!!! Thanks for the reminder.:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :heart:
  • Is it 1 tsp butter? This sounds so good and NORMAL. Is this recipe in the database aleady? Is it under Baked apple? Just wondering in case I make it tonight. I would love to try it. HH

    Sounds great! I'm not a big fan of the microwave so I'm going to try this in the oven. Any suggestions for how long?

    Sorry I didn't come back to this post in a timely manner. The recipe said 10 minutes in the oven but they didn't cook all the way through so I threw them in the microwave for 4 minutes. I was in a hurry that night. But 10 minutes just didn't do it. And yes it was a tsp of butter, but I'm sure you could use a low fat brand. My daughter told me that I should have put more brown sugar in but I just wanted a little sweet and I figured the more you add the more the calories. I will have to try the foil kind when I go to camp next year. I had just made my granola so I thought that would taste good. Enjoy everyone.
