How to Make Banana Bread Cobbler With Streusel Topping

1. **Make the Streusel Topping:** In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Stir in 1/2 cup rolled oats and 1/4 cup chopped pecans. Set aside.
3. **Prepare the Banana Bread Base:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 11x7 inch baking dish.
4. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 3/4 cup granulated sugar.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
6. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until just combined. Do not overmix.
7. Gently fold in 3 ripe bananas, mashed.
8. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
9. Arrange banana slices on top of the batter.
10. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the bananas.
11. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the topping is golden brown.
12. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
