Banana Bread Cobbler

Excuse me for posting multiple days in a row. I wanted to share this recipe. It is a Southern Living recipe that I decided to try because I already had the ingredients. I have made it several times now, and it is quite yummy. It tastes like warm banana pudding (mmm...).

1 cup self-rising flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup milk
1/2 cup melted butter
4 medium sized ripe bananas

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Whisk together flour and next 2 ingredients just until blended. Stir in melted butter. Pour batter into lightly greased 11x7 inch baking dish. Top with banana slices and sprinkle with streusal topping. Bake at 375 for 40- 45 min until brown and bubbly. Top with vanilla ice cream.

Streusel topping:
3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup self-rising flour
1/2 butter, softened
1 cup uncooked oats (I think next time I will try 3/4 cup)
1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Stir brown sugar, flour, and butter until crumbly. Add pecans and oats.

*Watch cooking times according to the size pan you use. I think I cooked this in a larger pan last night, and it seemed a little dry. I haven't had that problem before.
