Okay, so you're building an API that another server needs to auth with? If the opposing side is a server, a pre-shared PKI cert ought to work. If the opposing side is a potentially-untrustworth client application, the truth is there's nothing that's going to fit such a simple definition of "extra". The back and forth it takes to establish token exchange is not "extra" is the cost you have to pay to get security.
