"Baked" Apples

These are best made one at a time, and are sweet, yummy, easy to make, comfort food taken to a healthier level. Great alone, or with a dollop of whipped cream, ice cream, or frozen yogurt.

Wash and core the apple, put it in a deep enough bowl to cover it easily. In the center put 1 tsp. brown sugar, dash cinnamon (and nutmeg if you've got it), a pinch of salt, and 1/2 tsp. butter. Cover the bowl with a plate and microwave on high for 1:30-2:30 minutes, or until soft. Let sit for at least 3 minutes before eating.

These are also delightful with a few raisins, fresh or dried cranberries, or fresh or dried blueberries thrown in there.
