    microwave apple crisp for one

    There was an apple tree in my backyard when I was growing up.  We used to help my mom collect the apples, peel and slice them and she would put them in the freezer.

    During the winter, she would take out a container of frozen apple slices and make microwave apple crisp!  That memory inspired me to make this microwavable single serving apple crisp!

    How To Make Microwave Apple Crisp

    sliced and peel apples

    Step One:

    Peel and slice an apple.

    Put the apple slices into a greased ramekin. Set aside.

      Delicious!! We had one big honeycrisp apple left so we split this recipe between two small ramekins and it was the perfect amount. Will definitely save this as our new go to recipe!

      Hi I tried this but it didn’t turn out I left it in longer bc I didn’t think the apples were cooked enough.
      The crisp burnt a bit.

      Maybe the power level was too high? But I don’t know how to change it.
      Thanks

      Oh I could get into this! I might end up doing this when we have a random number of apples left that I don’t know what to do with!
