The Apple Doesn't Fall Far From The Tree

So... I was cold and hungry searching the fridge and cabinets for a snack... but I couldn't find anything. I had left an apple out earlier in the day, hoping that if I saw it enough I would want to eat it (yeah, right). Well... I just so happened to be on Pinterest and I found the PERFECT snack!! It only takes two minutes and very few ingredients. So... here is what you will need.
One apple (you will want to peel it and cut it into slices)
1/4 tsp. of cinnamon
1 TBSP water
One tablespoon of sugar (like, an actual spoon, since I didn't really measure)
And... that's it!! So what you want to do is combine all of this in a plastic baggie, sandwich sized should work fine but I used one a little bigger. Mix it all up so the apples are all covered in the cinnamon and sugar. Like this...



 









So what you do is heat it in the microwave for two minutes after opening a small portion of the bag for steam to be let out. (You can ignore the microwave being so messy haha).
After one minute... I take it out and check it to make sure it isn't getting too hot. After that I watch very closely... depending on what type of bags you use it may be done by 1 1/2 minutes or 2 minutes.



Then, pour the contents out of the bag and into a bowl!!!
Oh, and a few days ago I froze some cool whip from a can sprinkled with mini chocolate chips... just take out of the freezer and use them for coffee. Thought it might be good on the apples and it was GREAT!!! :) You can always play with the spices to fit your personal taste. Enjoy!!
