# Instructions:
01 -
In a bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, and oats. Use your fingers to blend in the butter until it looks crumbly. Toss in the pecans and pop it in the fridge while you get the filling ready.
02 -
Warm butter in a 10-inch skillet over a low flame. Stir in the brown sugar until it melts, which takes about 3 minutes. Sprinkle in some cinnamon and salt, then carefully mix in the orange juice (it'll bubble up a bit!). Let it cook for a minute until it thickens slightly.
03 -
Gently add the banana pieces into the pan and coat them evenly with the sauce. Spread everything out in one layer.
04 -
Once you've turned off the heat, sprinkle the chilled topping over the bananas. Bake in a 350°F oven for 20 minutes or until the topping looks golden and crunchy.
05 -
Allow it to cool in the skillet for about 10 minutes before serving it with whipped cream or ice cream.
