Time to gather your arse up off the floor, (have a bana-na)

So this is a cookbook we're reading, right? All this talk of bananas is making me hungry...

from my pal Mariella:

INGREDIENTS:
2 cups sifted flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 eggs, separated
1 1/2 cups milk
5 tablespoons melted shortening
1 banana, thinly sliced

PREPARATION:
Mix and sift dry ingredients. Combine beaten egg yolks, milk, melted
shortening and; add to dry ingredients, beating until smooth. Stir in
sliced banana. Fold in stiffly beaten egg whites. Pour or spoon batter
into each section of a hot waffle iron.
Cook banana waffles until crispy and browned.
Banana waffles recipe serves 6.

and from the internets:

...and if that isn't enough...
