Banana Cocoa Brownies

1 cup quick-cooking oats
1 cup boiling water
4 egg whites
1-1/2 cups mashed ripe bananas (about 3 medium)
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup baking cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

In a small bowl, combine oats and boiling water; let stand for 5 minutes. In a
large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites, bananas, sugars, oil and vanilla until
blended. Combine the dry ingredients; gradually add to creamed mixture. Stir in
the oat mixture. Spread into a 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. pan coated with cooking
spray. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the
center comes out clean (do not overbake). Cool on a wire rack. Cut into bars.
