Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease cookie sheets.
Mix together flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt in medium bowl.
Beat brown sugar and 1/2 cup butter in large mixer bowl until creamy. Beat in egg. Gradually beat in flour mixture alternately with apple juice. Stir in 1 1/2 cups butterscotch chips, apple and 1/2 cup walnuts.

When the butter and chips have melted remove the pan from heat and stir in 1 cup confectioners' sugar and 1 1/2 tablespoon apple juice until the glaze is smooth.
Spread the glaze on the cooled cookies and sprinkle with remaining walnuts.
