“apple cookers are great, corer not so
”
by Pat
The apple bakers are really good and I use them often. Unfortunately the serrated edge of the corer has worn away so it is now very hard to core a cooking apple and requires a great deal of pressure. I also find the top of the corer digs into my palm when using it (it hurts). I have had to resort to using my old metal one.

“No instructions included
”
by Alexander
As other reviewers have mentioned, this product does not come with any instructions at all. the corer is fairly easy to use (the smaller bit is to push the core out of the corer once you have pushed it through the apple. With a little experimentation I have decided that some dried fruit / sugar in the middle works really well and depending on the power of the microwave and size of the apple, it can be cooked in as little as a couple of minutes. Would be a 5 star product if instructions / sample recipes were included in the package.

“Microwave Apple Cookers
”
by Marina
I feel very disappointed that this product does not come with any instructions, hints or tips. The box was sealed on purchase and I assumed there would be a sheet inside. I was wrong. I have not yet used the product as a result.

A note from the team: We recommend to core the apple, then fill with raisins, sultanas, nuts, muesli, or ingredients of your choice and cook for 3-5 minutes. Can also be used to cook onions. We'll be in touch shortly. Thanks to the valuable feedback from our customers recipe cards are now included with this product.
“excellent for steaming too!
”
by Rebecca
I actually bought these as they were the nearest thing I could find to my parents ancient mini microwave steamer, and they work brilliantly for that purpose. They steam vegetables really well and are great for keeping sticky toffee puddings moist and gooey. Excellent when you only want a one-person-sized portion. And yes, having used them to bake raisin stuffed apples, they are perfect for their intended purpose too.

“Value for money.
”
by Mrs Pat Rukin
I purchased this item a few months ago, as I wanted to try a quick an easy method to use up Bramley cooking apples as an alternative to making pies or stewing them. First of all, I was so pleased with the size and quality of the pair of Apple Cookers, and secondly after a couple of minutes in the microwave the apples (stuffed with raisins, sprinkled with sugar and a little knob of butter on top) were delicious. This is another firm favourite of mine, bought from Lakeland.
