Notes

*Honey or any other syrup may be used instead of maple syrup. And you can use more than a teaspoon if you like them sweeter.
**The wedges need to be fairly thin so that they heat through and soften in the time listed. If your apples are large, cut more wedges. If you have small apples, fewer wedges will be fine. If your apples aren’t soft after the 10 minutes, leave them in for a bit longer.
