Notes
- •One pound apples = 3 medium apples = 3 cups sliced apples. This is good information to know at the grocery store.
- •Favorite varieties of apples for baking are Jonathan, Granny Smith, Braeburn, and Golden Delicious. Any tart apple works well.
- •Arrange the apples around the outside edge of the dish for more even cooking in the microwave.
- •Safety Tips: Wash the apples in clear running water before coring. If you have apples left, keep in the fridge for a handy snack later on.
