2 large green cooking apples
2 cups whole-wheat pastry flour
1 cup unbleached white flour
1 ¼ cups oat bran
2 ½ teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
1 12-ounce can apple juice concentrate, thawed
1 cup water

Instructions:
1. Heat oven to 325° F. Lightly oil muffin pan. Peel and core apples; chop them coarsely. Set aside.

2. In a mixing bowl, stir together pastry flour, white flour, oat bran, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

3. Add thawed apple-juice concentrate, chopped apples, and enough water to make a light batter.

4. Mix just enough to moisten all ingredients. Divide batter among the muffin cups and bake till lightly browned, 25-30 minutes.

5. Remove muffins from cups while hot.
