This was so tasty! and really easy, too. The blueberries sort of pop and the apple sort of crumples and the sugar and butter make a yummy light caramel. I had to microwave about 5 minutes. Delicious with ice cream.

I put 4 cut up apples on the bottom of a microwave safe bowl. I put the blueberries on top and microwaved it all for about 8 minutes. Nice. I liked it better cold, actually!

I'm not sure what happened, but there is no way this recipe works with my ramikins. I could only fit 1/4 cup of blueberries in, and after piercing the wholes in wrap, all the blueberry melted all over the place. It was very tart as well. My family really didn't like this.
