Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish. Set aside.

Place the steel cut oats in a medium bowl with 2 tablespoons of the margarine. Pour the hot water over the oats and cover the bowl. Let it stand for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon margarine in small skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced banana, 1 teaspoon dark brown sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon. Toss gently and cook about 1 minute. Add 1 teaspoon rum and cook for another minute. Remove from heat and set aside.

In a small bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the mashed bananas, milk, vanilla, and remaining 2 teaspoons rum. Set aside.

After steel cut oats have finished soaking, stir in the old fashioned oats, the remaining 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, maple syrup, remaining 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Stir the mashed banana mixture into the oat mixture.

Spread caramelized bananas over the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Pour the oatmeal mixture on top of the bananas. Bake for 35-40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
