Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a muffin tin with muffin liners.
Mix all of the dry ingredients (whole wheat flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon) in a large bowl.
In a small bowl, combine mashed bananas, eggs, maple syrup and vanilla extract. Pour in olive oil (or melted coconut oil) and stir rapidly.
