To make the muffins, in a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, apple pie spice, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together the brown sugar, applesauce, yogurt, oil, melted butter, and egg in a medium bowl. Add the applesauce mixture and apple to the flour mixture; stir just until the flour mixture is moistened.
