Serving Size : 36

1 1/2 cups whole-wheat pastry flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup granulated fructose or sugar
1/2 cup non-hydrogenated shortening

2 tablespoons banana liqueur or -- (2 to 3)
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 tablespoons water -- (2 to 3)
1 cup lightly toasted walnuts or pecans
Cooking Spray or oil

Preheat oven to 325'. Lightly spray or oil a baking sheet, or line with
parchment paper or a nonstick mat.

In a large mixing bowl whisk together flours, baking soda, baking
powder, and salt. In a blender or in a medium bowl with a wooden spoon,
cream sweetener, shortening, and liqueur or vanilla and water. Blend or
stir in stir in mashed banana. Make a well in the dry ingredients, add
banana mixture, and mix until incorporated. Stir in nuts. (Knead by hand
if necessary.)

On a lightly floured board, divide dough in half and roll into 2 14-inch
logs. Place logs on prepared sheet, then flatten to about I inch high.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove from oven and let
cool completely.

Reset oven to 300'. If you have one, lay a heat-proof rack or a pizza
screen on a baking sheet. Slice cookies on the diagonal, about 1/2-inch
wide. Place slices flat on rack, screen, or baking sheet and bake for 25
minutes. (If using a baking sheet alone, flip cookies over halfway
through baking, for even browning.) Turn oven off, leaving cookies in
the oven to get crisp while oven cools.
