Calories per muffin: 103

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon apple pie spice or ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons apple juice
1 large egg
1 small Golden Delicious apple, peeled, cored and diced
1/4 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line 12 mini muffin cups with paper liners.

2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, spice and salt. In another bowl, whisk together oil, sugar, juice and egg. Add oil mixture to the flour mixture, stirring just until combined, then stir in the apple. Divide the batter among the muffin cups and top each with the walnuts.

3. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Allow to cool slightly in pan before removing muffins to cooling rack.
