Baked Apples – Kids in the Kitchen!

So my daughter (9yrs old) has taken to baking (aka making a gigantic mess) in the kitchen.   And, with a lack of chocolate chips, cocoa powder, maple syrup, cream cheese, and half a dozen spices, what’s a girl to do?

We went for baked apples – in the microwave.

Per apple:

1.  Cut in half, and scoop out the core.(mommy’s job)

2.  Lay 2 halves flesh side up on microwavable dish.

3.  Sprinkle each half with 1 tsp brown sugar, sprinkle of cinnamon, and 1 tbsp raisins

4.  Microwave 2 minutes, checking every 30 seconds until soft & apple-sauce-like.

Yummy!!  It seemed like the perfect fall recipe to post today!
