Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and optional dash of salt to a large bowl and whisk together to combine.
In a separate medium bowl, peel and mash the bananas. Add the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined and no flour is remaining.
Cut up the blackberries. Fold in the blackberries into the batter.
Spoon out batter into a greased or lined muffin pan, filling to the top of the pan.
Bake at 425℉ for 5 minutes. Then reduce the temperature to 350℉ and continue baking for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown on top and when you insert a toothpick, it comes out clean.
