Fast Creamy Baked Apples – Fat Free,“Apples are so good for you and make a wonderful dessert or even breakfast. This one is somewhere in between and best of all it doesn’t have any fat! Can be ready start to finish in under 10 minutes – made in the microwave and can be easily scaled up or down for the number of people you’re serving. If your looking to make this more dessert-like, include the optional toppings! WW points w/out optional ingredients = 1”,I loved how easy this recipe was to make! I didn’t have access to great measuring devices, so I might not have used the exact amounts of each ingredient listed. I used a firm gala apple, unpeeled. Instead of Splenda, I used one packet of Truvia. I cooked it for about 1 and 1/2 minutes, stirred it around, then cooked it for the remaining minute. The apple chunks had a great soft texture. I topped them with a bit of vanilla sucralose because I wanted a stronger vanilla flavor (I had used a sort of vanilla flavoring instead of pure vanilla extract for the sauce), and because I have a bit of a sweet tooth. The sauce did thicken, but not quite as much as I would have liked. That might have been due to the fact that I wasn’t quite sure how much corn starch I used, though. I think these would taste great with vanilla ice cream or as the filling for a crêpe!
