Basic Banana Muffins

4 ripe bananas, mashed (or 2 ripe bananas, mashed, plus 1 cup blueberries - this is what we do)
2 large eggs (we use free-range/free-run eggs)
2 cups spelt flour
2/3 cup oil (we use canola, but olive or safflower are also acceptable)
1 tsp baking soda
pinch of salt (we use sea salt)
1 tbsp cinnamon
(optional raisins or walnuts - I'm not a fan)

1) Preheat oven to 350F. Blend all ingredients together in a large bowl.

2) Fill each cup of muffin stone/tin mostly full of batter. (I recommend using liners if you use a stone. Muffin stones are impossible to clean!)

3) Bake for 25-30 minutes. (They're finished when tester comes out clean.)

Important note: See how there's no sugar? If you're used to crazy, sugary muffins, this will be a shock to you. You'll likely find, as we did, that the fruit is sweet enough once you've had your first bite. :)
