    Ingredients

    • 2 c. all-purpose flour
    • 1 tsp baking soda
    • 1/4 tsp grnd cinnamon
    • 1/4 tsp grnd ginger
    • 1/4 tsp grnd allspice
    • 1/4 tsp grnd nutmeg
    • 1/4 tsp salt rounded
    • 2 lrg Large eggs
    • 1 c. apple juice, frzn concentrate thawed, plus
    • 2 Tbsp. apple juice, frzn concentrate thawed
    • 2/3 c. buttermilk
    • 2 Tbsp. oat bran
    • 2 sm Granny Smith apples peeled, cored and minced
    • 1/3 c. minced walnuts (about 1-1/3 ounces)
    • 1 sm Granny Smith apple peeled, cored and cut into 12 thin slices

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 375F. Grease 12 standard size muffin-pan c. or possibly line with paper liners.
    2. Mix together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, nutmeg and salt. Mix together Large eggs, apple juice, and buttermilk. Stir flour mix and oat bran into egg mix till dry ingredients are just moistened. Don't overmix. Gently stir in minced apples and nuts. Spoon batter into prepared pan, filling c. two-thirds full. Garnish each muffin with an apple slice.
    3. Bake muffins till lightly golden brown and tops spring back when pressed, 25 min. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cold slightly. Turn muffins out onto rack to cold completely.
    4. NOTES : Of course, I haven't had them WITH the buttermilk, but substituting the plain no-fat yogurt seems to have worked just fine. They are moist and moderately sweet. I didn't find the oat bran, so I bought a box of Quaker Oat Bran cereal and crushed it up, using it instead. The recipe only calls for 2 Tbsp., and I figure it's for added fiber.
