In a medium bowl, mash the bananas with a potato masher or fork. Add oil, whole egg and egg whites, and mix thoroughly.
Pour the batter into the pan and top with extra Uncle Tobys Traditional Cooking Oats. Bake for 45 minutes or until cooked through. Remove from oven and allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Flip out and cool on a wire rack for another 10 minutes. Slice the loaf into 10 equally sized slices.
