How To Make healthy harvest breakfast muffins
-
1Preheat 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!
-
2Combine first 8 ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Stir until well blended.
-
3In a separate smaller bowl combine next 5 ingredients (bananas - butter), stir until well blended.
-
4In another separate small bowl, combine next 6 ingredients (almonds - nutmeg) for muffin topping.
-
5Add banana mixture to the flour mixture along with the raisins, if you desire.
-
6STIR JUST UNTIL MOISTENED. Do not over stir.
-
7Fill muffin cups 2/3 way full.
-
8Press enough of the brown sugar-nut topping into each muffin to cover the top, and to your taste. About 2 Tbsp. per muffin.
-
9Bake at 375 degrees for about 20 minutes, until the muffin springs back when lightly touched.
-
10Makes 16 small muffins, or 8 giant-sized muffins.
