Banana Oatmeal Squares

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups oatmeal (instant or rolled oats both work well)
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 large ripe banana, mashed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk

Pre-heat the oven to 350ºF. Grease an 8-inch x 8-inch cake pan.

Dump all of the ingredients into a large bowl and stir until well combined. Pour the mixture into a prepared cake pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool for 5-10 minutes before cutting into squares.
