Recipe - Healthy Apple-Walnut Muffins

2 cup Allpurpose flour
1 teaspoon Baking soda
One fourth teaspoon Ground cinnamon
One fourth teaspoon Ground ginger
One fourth teaspoon Ground allspice
One fourth teaspoon Ground nutmeg
One fourth Round teaspoon salt
2 lg Eggs
1 cup Plus 2 tablespoons frozen;
thawed apple juice
concentrate
2/3 cup Buttermilk
2 tablespoon Oat bran
2 small Granny Smith apples; peeled,
cored, and chopped
1/3 cup Chopped walnuts (about 11/3
ounces)

GARNISH
1 small Granny Smith apple; peeled,
cored and cut into 12 thin
slices

Here's the recipe I'm wanting to try. If I can't find a substitute, I'll
make it with the buttermilk. Either way I'll let you all know how they
turned out. The picture looks yummy. The recipe is from The Great American
Home Baking recipe cards (a free sample came in the mail)

Preheat oven to 375F. Grease 12 standard size muffinpan cups or line with
paper liners.

Mix together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, nutmeg and
salt. Mix together eggs, apple juice, and buttermilk. Stir flour mixture
and oat bran into egg mixture until dry ingredients are just moistened. Do
not overmix. Gently stir in chopped apples and nuts. Spoon batter into
prepared pan, filling cups twothirds full. Garnish each muffin with an
apple slice.

Bake muffins until lightly golden and tops spring back when pressed, 25
minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool slightly. Turn muffins out
onto rack to cool completely.
