Healthy apple pie dessert


One day while watching The Biggest Loser, Jillian Michaels shared a yummy healthy recipe.


Now, normally I don't make (much less even remember to make) recipes I've seen on TV, but this one looked so easy and yummy.

Cinnamon Apples:


Start with an Apple. (I LOVE Gala ones).

Slice said apple.

If you don't have an apple slicer/corer, go buy one. They are so worth the money.


Throw the core away, put the apple in a bowl, and add some water (about 1/4 Cup or so).

Next step not pictured: put the bowl of apple slices in the microwave, COVER, and cook for 2 minutes. Now carefully pour all the water out. You can leave the apple in the bowl or put it on a plate.


Once you've drained the water, sprinkle cinnamon all over the apple. NOTE: Use straight cinnamon. You do not need a cinnamon/sugar mixture for this.

Now enjoy eating them (careful, they are H-O-T).

They taste like apple pie without the crust.


They are so delish. Even my kids like them.


Have a healthy week!

  7. Little tip for any reader: put the cinnamon BEFORE putting the apple into the microwave, because then, with the juice the apple gives, it will give you a kind of cinnamon syrup that's to die for!

  9. I added the cinnamon before and it was great idea. A tad of cool whip was a great way to add that extra "something" :)
