This cake is so simply, delicious yet healthy one, as there is no butter mixed to it and adding oats adds extra healthiness to this cake. This is simple and easy cake that beginner can easily prepare. Cake got finished within 2 hrs after I removed from oven.

Notes:
- Sugar quantity can be adjusted to its need. As my banana is sweeter, the sugar quantity I mentioned above it enough for our taste buds.
- Since my kids want the cake immediately, I made it to cool faster by placing the baking tray on a plate full of cold water. So it got cooled withing 5 min.
