1.Toast Nuts
Spread them in a single layer on a microwave-safe dish, then add oil or butter — about half a teaspoon for every cup of nuts or seeds — and heat them on high in your microwave for about a minute. Check to make sure they’re done, adding time in small amounts as needed until they’re lightly brown and have that nice smell.
2.Bake Apples
For a speedier soft apple, peel and core it, and either leave it whole or cut it into pieces. Fill or cover with a tablespoon of butter and any spices or seasonings you prefer, like cinnamon. Cover it with wax paper and heat on high for 2½ to 3 minutes. Make sure to let it sit for a bit before eating.
