What Do Baked Oats Taste Like?

Baked oats are hard to describe – the texture is quite dense, not light and airy like a cake would be, but tasty nonetheless! I think I prefer them with some extra flavours added as the basic recipe can taste not unlike banana bread – not that banana bread is a bad thing of course!
