In any case, there are so many recipes in the culinary history of different countries that everyone can choose a cooking method to suit their taste.
Baked apples with various fillings are not only very tasty, but also healthy for the body.
But it’s not just the aroma and taste that make baked apples so popular. Doctors have long been talking about the beneficial properties of this dessert. And given the fast cooking time in the microwave, the fruit does not have time to lose both its appetizing appearance and nutritional qualities. Pectin, which is very abundant in baked apples, plays a huge positive role here. So, the benefits of baked apples include:

Of course, if you are cooking for a baby under one year old, it is advisable not to add sugar, honey, solid additives such as nuts and foods that can cause allergies to apples. For a baby's first feeding, a green (by variety) baked apple in its pure form, without peel or any additives, is suitable. In the future, the dish can be diversified by filling it with cottage cheese, banana, and then, when the baby learns to chew well, with pieces of dried fruit.
Secrets of success
First of all, you need to decide which apples to choose for baking in the microwave. Fruits with strong, hard skin and not very sweet pulp are ideal. The best varieties for making dessert:
- "Rennet";
- "Antonovka";
- "Mac";
- "Semerenko."
The microwave will prepare baked apples for you much faster than the oven, literally in 5-7 minutes.
Apples are baked in a microwave oven for 5–7 minutes at a power of 600 W
Before putting the apples in the microwave, wash them, dry them, cut off a small circle from the top and carefully remove the core. The easiest way to do this is with a special knife. If you plan to add filling by cutting out the core, leave the bottom about 1cm thick.
A tube-shaped knife makes it easy to cut out the core of an apple, but in order not to pierce the fruit all the way through, you still have to tinker
It is worth pricking the apples with a needle or toothpick so that the peel does not burst during cooking.
To prevent the peel from bursting, prick the apple with a toothpick.
To make the apples bake faster, it is better to pour a little water into the bottom of the microwave dish in which they will be baked and cover the dish on top with a glass or ceramic lid without metal parts.
When cooking under the lid, the fruit is additionally steamed

Baked apples in the microwave according to my recipe with cottage cheese, banana and chocolate. You know, I still haven’t met children who don’t like the combination of banana and chocolate.
- Cooking time: 30 minutes
- Inventory and kitchen appliances: knife, spoon, blender, saucepan, bowl, cutting board, microwave.
Required Products
- 4 apples

- 2 tbsp. l. powdered sugar
- 40 g dark chocolate
- Vanilla essence (a couple of drops)
Features of product selection
For this recipe, it is advisable to choose apples with sourness; there will be enough sweetness from the filling and filling. Cottage cheese should be of medium fat content, but not dry. Dry cottage cheese will become one hard lump, and slightly greasy cottage cheese will easily rub together with powder.
How to bake apples in the microwave
We will divide the preparation of apples with cottage cheese in the microwave into several stages.
First, I’ll prepare the apples: I’ll wash four beautiful, ruddy fruits and, using a sharp knife, carefully cut out the top along with the stalk into a cone. Then I scoop out the seeds with a spoon, trying to leave more pulp.
The invention of the microwave oven was made possible by American defense industry engineer Percy Spencer. He noticed the effect of microwave waves on food during prolonged contact with a magnetron used in radar installations.
Filling for apples
As a filling for apples in the microwave, my recipe is 150 grams of cottage cheese and banana. I don’t bother grinding the cottage cheese through a sieve; I knead it with a fork along with the powder (two tablespoons). I cut one banana into arbitrary but small pieces and mix it with cottage cheese. I also add vanilla essence (vanillin-sugar) here for scent.
Third stage: I stuff the apples and, putting them in a bowl, put them in the microwave for ten minutes. While the delicacy is baking, I melt 50 grams of chocolate in a water bath. I grind the nuts in a blender.
The most delicious stage is the design of the finished dessert. I take out the finished apples and let them cool a little. Then I pour melted chocolate over it with a spoon and sprinkle with nuts.
To bake an apple in the microwave for a child, consider his age: a baby under one year old should not add sugar, but older ones can. It should be given to a relatively small child by mashing the baked pulp into a puree, after removing the peel.
Before baking whole apples in the microwave, it is advisable to run a pastry brush over the peel while washing the fruit, applying gentle pressure. Then you can pierce it with a toothpick so that when baking the skin does not burst and lose its presentable appearance.
How long to bake apples in the microwave - it all depends on the power of the microwave and the number of fruits, on average up to ten minutes. When increasing the number of baked apples, increase their cooking time.

Combine cottage cheese, egg yolk, sugar and vanillin.
Mix everything thoroughly. If the mixture seems thick to you, add another egg yolk.
Fill the apple pots with cottage cheese, pierce them in several places with a knife so that the mixture does not leak out during baking. Pour a couple of tablespoons of water into the baking dish. This is necessary so that the apples do not burn on it. Microwave the dishes for 10 minutes at 800 watts.

Today we are preparing juicy apples with pompous fillings. Join us to also understand how tasty, sweet and at the same time beautiful it is!
Today we have many different products in our arsenal, and the main component is apples. Of course, it would be stupid to talk about how to choose them correctly, but in a nutshell, you can afford it.
Apples, like any other product, should look beautiful and appetizing. They must be intact, without stains, dents, traces of impacts, scratches, and so on. If you rub it in your hands, you should feel their subtle, sweet aroma. Depending on the variety, the size of the fruit should be the same and the color even. Don’t be shy and ask the seller to cut you a slice so as not to waste your money. If you like everything, buy it!
When choosing dried fruits, remember that these fruits are bright and fade in the sun, so when dry they should already be pale. Ask to taste it to see if there is any weird aftertaste that often occurs when fruit is dried in an unnatural way. Do not accept products with cracks or tears. It is also important that the product is matte, not glossy in any case.
The next two ingredients need to be chosen even more carefully. This is honey and cottage cheese. We generally consider the second component to be the most important in today's desserts, since if spoiled it can cause poisoning. Let's go in order.
We recommend buying honey from sellers in bulk so that you can examine, touch, smell and generally see it with your own (!) eyes, rather than buying the product in a sealed jar. Ask the seller to wrap the honey on a spoon - it is by no means uniform, it is wound with a thick ribbon.
The bee product must be heavy. That is, one liter of honey can reach one and a half kilograms in weight and this is normal! If it drains quickly, it means it has been diluted with water. You can immediately leave this place empty-handed. Believe me, no other honey from this seller will be of better quality.
Specify the period of infusion of honey – it should be at least 3 months. If you see foam on the surface of the product, it means it has fermented. Now remember! Real honey cannot spoil in any way; it has no expiration date! So the “honey” you see is not what it says it is or is not prepared correctly.
If you see grass, bee corpses or pieces of wax in the product, don’t be fooled. Sellers do this in order to convince you of the naturalness of their product. They may also add chalk to make the texture thicker. Vinegar can detect it, but only at home. This honey will begin to “fizz” like soda.
Ready to discuss cottage cheese? A very important ingredient that must be of high quality and fresh. That is, it was prepared no more than 72 hours ago.
The color of the dairy product is usually white, but can be slightly creamy, but not yellow! Yellow cottage cheese - the dye is working or the cottage cheese is simply expired. The dye is added because many people consider yellow curd to be very fatty. It's actually slightly darker than white.
If the item is fine, ask the seller to cut it in half. If the pieces are whole, everything is fine. If it crumbles into a pile of crumbs, it is not made correctly.
Often sellers play with starch, which, when swelling, increases the volume of cottage cheese quite well. Unfortunately, its presence in the composition can only be determined at home. If you drop a little iodine on the curd, the starch will turn it blue. The market simply won't allow you to do this.
Now that you can choose all the ingredients, let's get down to the recipes to quickly please your loved one with a delicious dessert.
