Replace steps 3 and 4: put the coconut milk and bananas in a covered saucepan, place it on the middle rack of the oven at 150 degrees for 11 minutes; about 1 minute longer than on the stovetop, but the gentle heat will keep the bananas in pieces, the coconut milk won't curdle, and no stirring is needed.
