How to Make Apple Oat Bran Muffins

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
Peel, core, and coarsely chop 2 medium green apples (about 2 cups chopped). Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups pastry flour, ½ cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup oat bran, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
In a separate bowl, combine ½ cup thawed apple juice concentrate and ½ cup water.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients along with the chopped apples. Gently stir until just combined; do not overmix.
Fill muffin cups about ¾ full.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
