• 1. Preheat oven to 375. Line muffin pan with cups, if desired. Spray pan or liners with vegetable spray. Spraying the paper liners a bit, makes it easier to pull off the paper without taking the whole muffin with it!
• 2. Combine first 8 ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Stir until well blended.
• 3. In a separate smaller bowl combine next 5 ingredients (bananas - butter), stir until well blended.
• 4. In another separate small bowl, combine next 6 ingredients (almonds - nutmeg) for muffin topping.
• 5. Add banana mixture to the flour mixture along with the raisins, if you desire.
• 6. STIR JUST UNTIL MOISTENED. Do not over stir.
• 7. Fill muffin cups 2/3 way full.
• 8. Press enough of the brown sugar-nut topping into each muffin to cover the top, and to your taste. About 2 Tbsp. per muffin.
• 9. Bake at 375 degrees for about 20 minutes, until the muffin springs back when lightly touched.
