Oatmeal Banana Breakfast Bread

My son's exact words, "tastes just like banana bread."  It has a slight taste of cinnamon with a bit of crunch from the oats.  Adding unsweetened apple sauce, and this bread would be good to serve for breakfast.  
My son also told me to make this bread more often... I think I will!

Serves 16 (or not)


1  1/2 cup flour
1  1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
3 very ripe bananas
1/4 cup oil
1/2 cup old fashioned oats (plus more to sprinkle on top)
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce

• In one bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and sugar
• In another bowl, mix together egg, bananas, oil, oats and applesauce.  (I used an electric mixer)
• Combine both and pour into a greased loaf pan
• Sprinkle top of loaf with a small handful of oats
• Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
• Place pan on cooling rack. When bread is cool enough, remove and let bread finish cooling on rack before slicing.
