As a rule I usually don't cook anything in my microwave, but I will make these little gems just that way from now on. Oh my were these ever good! I had one lone Granny Smith apple that I wanted to do something with as it certainly wasn't enough for a pie. So, this is what I created. I will be making these often as we always have apples in the house. The ingredients can easily be adjusted to your individual needs. My measurements are very close to what I used. I didn't measure as I often don't. I hope you try them sometime, they were awesome with a scoop of ice cream.

Ingredients

I MADE JUST ONE STUFFED APPLE, DOUBLE OR TRIPLE INGREDIENTS TO YOUR NEEDS
1 tablespoon each - chopped pecans, brown sugar, raisins or dried cranberries
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons maple syrup - divided
1 tablespoon butter

How To Make ~ cassies individual warm stuffed apples ~ so easy

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix pecans or could use walnuts, cinnamon, brown sugar and raisins. Core apple, making sure you widen the hole just a little for the filling to fit. Peel the apple 2/3 of the way from the top.

Step 2

Place in a small microwave oven safe casserole. If the apple doesn't want to sit up straight, trim the bottom to flatten. Stuff with brown sugar mixture. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon syrup. Cover and cook on high setting for 3 minutes, or until apple is tender. May take more or less time depending on the microwave. Mine took 3 minutes exactly. While apple is cooking, heat remaining syrup and butter until butter is melted.
Step 3

When apple is cooked, plate and drizzle with any remaining caramel type liquid from bottom of dish. Pour maple butter sauce over the apple. Serve warm with ice cream.
Step 4

Awesome!
