If they don’t taste good raw, believe me, they aren’t going to taste good cooked.
Sprinkle the apples with the sugar.
Add a light sprinkle of cinnamon.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap.
Microwave for 5 minutes on high power.
Adjust the time for your microwave and how many apples you are doing.

If you use more apples, you will probably need to cook them a little longer.

When the apples are done, toss them, so the sugar coats the apple pieces.
Add maple syrup to taste, about 1 tablespoon.
Simple Tip!
Refrigerate leftovers in a covered container for 3 to 5 days.
Cooked apples freeze well, too.
They’ll keep for up to 5 months in the freezer in a tightly sealed container.
