Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 medium bananas -- mashed
1 cup strawberries -- peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons sugar
3 cups flour -- all-purpose
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter -- softened
2 egg -- beaten slightly

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Mix together the bananas, strawberries and sugar, set aside. (Don't do
this much in advance, the bananas will blacken)

Mix together the flour, baking powder and salt. Mix well with a whisk.
Using a pastry blender, mix in the butter until coarse. Still using the
pastry blender, mix in the eggs, one at a time. Stir in the banana
mixture. The dough will be very moist and messy. Knead it in the bowl
enough to pick up all of the flour mixture. (It will still be very
moist.)

Turn out the dough on a floured board, and flour the top of the dough so
that flour coats the entire dough. Flatten with a rolling pin or your
hands to 3/4".

Using a knife, cut the dough into squares, or large wedges, and lay onto
an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in the center of the oven for 15 - 20
minutes, or until lightly browned.
