Nonstick cooking spray
4-1/2 oz. (1 cup) unbleached all-purpose flour
4 oz. (1 cup) whole-wheat flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. table salt

1 pink lady apple
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1 tbsp brown sugar

boil water, add remaining ingredients, turn to medium and let cook for 5 minutes stirring occasionally. Take off heat, cover and let sit for 2-3 minutes. OMG, it was SO good and healthy! :)
