In a medium saucepan, bring the apple juice and water to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in apples, millet, raisins, and salt; cover and simmer for 40 to 45 minutes until thickened (there will still be some liquid) Remove from heat and let stand for 15 minutes. Uncover and stir in coconut oil, nuts or seeds, if using.
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350°F (180C). Line the cups of a 12-count standard size muffin tin with silicone liners. If you are ok eating a small amount of oil, you can grease or spray the cups instead.
Using a large cookie scoop or spoon, spoon the millet mixture equally among prepared muffin cups.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until tops are golden and slightly puffed. Let cool completely in pan on a cooling rack before running a knife around edge of each muffin and removing from pan.

Fruit Options: An equal amount of pears, or finely chopped peaches or aricots, can be used in place of the apples.

Storage: Store the cooled muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
