- After 8 minutes of cooking, sprinkle cinnamon on top of your apples. Cook another 2 minutes.

- Enjoy!
Notes
I used a Cosmic Crisp Apple, but you can use your favorite apple. The 10 minutes of cooking should leave your apple still a bit firm and crisp, not mushy and soft. If you want it softer, you may opt to cook it a few minutes longer.
