Not only has Grape-Nuts made this

Banana Short-Cake.

Banana shortcake is a very good sub
stitute for strawberry shortcake and
is made in exactly the same manner.
The cake is baked, cut open and spread
with butter. The bananas, sliced and
sugared, are put between the layers
and over the top if preferred. Like
strawberry shortcake, this is much i'm
proved if whippeds cream is poured
over it. but. like strawberry shortcake
again, it is delicious without the cream.
