Oven Instructions
Preheat
oven to 375°F. Place apples, cut-side-up, in a baking dish. Dot apples
with butter, drizzle with maple syrup and sprinkle with cinnamon. Pour
1/4 cup water into bottom of the dish and cover it with foil. Bake until
apples are soft, about 35 minutes. Uncover and bake another 10 minutes.
Transfer apples to a serving dish and pour the cooking liquid over the
top. Allow to cool 5 minutes before serving. Top with granola and
whipped cream, if desired.
Microwave Instructions
Place
butter in a glass baking dish and cook on high power just long enough to
melt it, about 10 seconds. Add maple syrup and cinnamon and cook for 10
more seconds. Place apples, cut-side-down, in dish, cover and cook for 3
minutes, until tender but not mushy. Allow to cool 5 minutes. Serve
cut-side-up, topped with granola and whipped cream, if desired.
