Blend softened butter with sugar and add eggs, beating the mixture thoroughly. Sift together flour, baking powder and soda, and salt, then stir into butter-sugar mixture. Stir in oats. Chop the large peeled apple into small bits and add to dough with cheese and nuts.
Gradually add milk, stirring lightly.
Fill buttered muffin tins ⅔ full. Brush apple slices with melted butter and coat with sugar-cinnamon mixture, then top batter in each muffin tin with 1 apple slice. Sprinkle remaining sugar-cinnamon mixture evenly over top. Bake for about 25 minutes in a preheated oven.
