My five kiddos love all types of fresh fruit and that makes me very happy, but sometimes we get a little bored and want to spice it up a little.

This method of “baking” apples in the microwave is super fast and easy, it only takes a few ingredients and you can make as much or as little as you like.

We also have a favorite restaurant that serves “fried apples” and when the kids decide it’s time to go eat out but momma isn’t ready I can usually appease them by making them these apples at home – win, win!
