The search for the perfect banana bread continues

It's in the oven now, but I wanted to write down the ingredients before I forget.  Will report on results and possibly add pictures if it's any good (if it's very good, it won't last long enough for shooting).

in a large mixing bowl, combine

• 5 mashed bananas
• 1 c. soaked, but not cooked, steel cut oats
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 2 extra-small lemons, de-seeded and whirled through the food-processor
• dozen dates, roughly chopped

in a separate small bowl, combine

• 2.5 c. flour
• 1.5 tsp. baking soda
• 1/3 c. powered buttermilk
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/2 c. brown sugar

grease bread pan, preheat oven to 325F.  Barely mix wet and dry ingredients, pour into pan and bake for an unknown period of time, right now I have the timer on for 1hr 15 min, since the usual 55-60 min hasn't been enough for my previous attempts.
