Apricot Muffins Categories: main dish, poultry, cheese 1/2 cup apricots; finely snipped 1/3 cup unsweetened apple juice 1 cup whole wheat flour 2 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom or ginger 1/3 cup chopped walnuts 3 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 tablespoon sugar 1 egg Soak the apricots in the apple juice for 10 minutes. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, spice and walnuts in a bowl. Beat together the oil, sugar, and egg. Add the apricots, with the juice and egg mixture to the flour. Mix just until all the ingredients are blended. Spoon into oiled muffin tins or (my choice) paper muffin cups (sprayed with non-stick spray). Fill cups 3/4 full. Bake in 350 F oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown. 1 muffin - 182 calories, 1 bread exchange, 1/2 fruit, 2 fat 22 grams carbohydrate, 4 grams protein, 10 grams fat 97 mg sodium, 166 mg potassium, 34 mg cholesterol Source: Am.
