1 3/4 cup flour

2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1/3 cup shortening

2/3 cup sugar

2 eggs, well beaten

1 1/2 cups well mashed, overripe banana (2 or 3 bananas)

Instructions:

Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. With the

electric beater on low, fluff the shortening in a small bowl, until soft
