Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350.

In a large bowl, mix together oats, half of the walnuts, sugar, baking powder and cinnamon.

In another bowl, whisk together milk, egg, butter, and vanilla; add to the dry ingredients and stir just until combined.

Fold in the blueberries.

Generously butter the bottom of an 8 " pan and add sliced bananas. Pour batter over bananas and top with remaining walnuts.

Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes until top is golden and the oatmeal is set. Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
