Recipe - Strawbery Banana Scones

2 md Bananas mashed
1 cup Strawberries peeled and
Chopped
2 tablespoon Sugar
3 cup Flour, allpurpose
3 teaspoon Baking powder
1 teaspoon Salt
3 tablespoon 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.

I have added pine nuts, raspberries, pecans, anything to the basic flour,
baking powder, salt, butter and eggs mixture. Yum!
