Answers:

Microwave Baked Apple
low calorie version
serves one

1 medium apple
1/2 teaspoon butter or margarine
1 teaspoon brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
dash ground ginger
1 Tablespoon water
1-2 Tablespoons raisins

Pare apple about one-third of the way from the top. Core apple. Sprinkle inside of apple with about 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon. Set in microwave safe dish. Stuff with raisins. Pour water over top of apple. Put butter or marg. on top of raisins. Put brown sugar on top of butter. Sprinkle rest of cinnamon and ginger over top of apple and butter. Cover lightly with microwave plastic wrap and cook on high for 2-4 minutes until soft, depending on microwave. Let cool slightly and serve.

The non-low calorie version, I make with more sugar and butter and serve warm (not hot) with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and cinnamon sauce.

Basic Cinnamon Sauce

1 cup plus 2 teaspoons water
2 Tablespoons butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons cornstarch

Add 1 cup water, butter, sugar and cinnamon to a small saucepan. Heat until just boiling. Mix cornstarch and rest of water together and whisk into hot syrup, cook on a low boil, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens
