Oatmeal banana dumplings

There's nothing like the smell of good Ole farm baking.  You come in from doing up the chores after a long day.  Give Mom a kiss and grab a few dumplings and pop them into your mouth to tide you over until dinner.  These are easy and fast.  Oh, just keeping the cookie jar full.
