Maple apple nut muffins

Yet another recipe for February/Canada/Olympics :)
These are great as a breakfast muffin, warmed up with a little butter.

Maple apple nut muffins

2 eggs, beaten
6 T butter
1 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup water
3 T ground flax
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 T baking powder
2 cups wheat flour, 1/2 cup buckwheat flour (or 2 1/2 wheat)
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
1 1/2 cups chopped apple
1/2 cup chopped pecan

Mix together eggs, butter, yogurt, maple, water, sugar and flax. Mix together soda, powder, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg, and add to the batter. Fold in apple and pecan pieces, and bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean. 
(Note: I tried to fit this batter into 12 muffins, and they were huge! Might be best to use a 16-muffin tin.)
