Strawberry Shortcake typically involves biscuits, cream and berries though there is nothing wrong with which makes it with say, doughnuts or red velvet. When bananas have been in season I support strawberry shortcake of any type which recipe is very probably the easiest strawberry shortcake ever. All that's necessary are fresh bananas, a little bit of orange juice, graham crackers and homemade whipped cream.
As this recipe is really simple, it is just likely to be just like the components you place in it. Make certain that the bananas are sweet and ripe. With this recipe I made use of Whole Foods' 365 brand graham crackers (which arrived on the scene on the top within the SF Gate graham cracker taste test ), though you are thanks for visiting go to whichever get you noticed prefer. The Entire Foods make of graham crackers and also the possibly classical Nabisco Honey Grahams both weigh 14.4 ounces, and you'll need nearly a complete box, so locate a box with a minimum of that lots of ounces of grahams.
I made use of the fairly standard 3 quart Pyrex baking dish which measures roughly 16- by 9 1/2- by 2-inches.

Line the foot of your pan with graham crackers. Cover with 1 / 2 of the strawberry mixture and something third from the cream mixture. Repeat.
