Instructions

Make the Topping: In a small bowl stir together the butter, oats, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Set aside.
Peel and chop the apple into bite-size chunks. Place 1/3 of the topping in the bottom of a microwave-safe mug. Next, fill the mug with the chopped apple. Finally, spoon the remaining oat topping over the apples. Your mug will be very full but it will cook down in the microwave
Microwave for 1 minute. With the tines of a fork, check the apples' softness. Continue cooking in 15-second increments until the apples are at the desired softness.
Remove the mug from the microwave carefully as it will be hot. Let it cool slightly.

Cooking times will vary depending on the power of your microwave and the depth of your mug. I tend to use deep mugs and my microwave is not super powerful.
