Crust
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup pecans, finely chopped
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
5 tablespoons butter, melted

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Stir together the oats, pecans, brown sugar and butter until well combined. Press firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 18 minutes or until golden brown. Cool.

Filling
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup mashed ripe bananas
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons lemon juice

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Beat together the cream cheese, bananas, 3/4 cup sugar and lemon juice until well blended. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Pour into the crust. Bake for 40 minutes. While the cake is baking, prepare Sour Cream Topping.

Sour Cream Topping
