| 2 | this banana shortcake makes a satisfying, whole breakfast - it"s not a dessert shortcake. |
| 3 | Because the banana bread is made in advance - and probably frozen - the shortcake is quick and easy to put together. |
| 4 | I (marjorie hurt jones) sometimes serve it for "normal eating" house guests who devour every last crumb! |
| 5 | directions: |
| 6 | mash banana with a fork; whip until light and frothy. |
| 7 | If you enjoy a little tang, add the lemon juice or the pinch of the vit c. toast the bread lightly either in a toasster oven or in a dry frypan - homemade quickbreads don"t do well in a traditional pop-up toasster. |
| 8 | to assemble: lay toasted bread on a plate; top with a dollop of masshed banana. |
| 9 | note: if your banana bread is frozen be sure to take it out the evening before you want it for breakfast. |
| 10 | Use a serrated bread knife for slicing. |
