Banana Butter Canning Recipes

Steps:

• Measure first 5 ingreedients into large saucepan.
• Heat and stir constantly as you bring to a rolling boil.
• Boil for 1 minute.
• Remove from heat.
• Stir in pectin.
• Stir and skim for 5 minutes so fruit won't float.
• Pour into hot sterilized half pint jars to within 1/4 inch of top.
• Place sterilized metal lids on jars and screw metal bands on securely.
• For added assurance against spoilage, you may choose to process for 5 minutes in a boiling water bath.

Steps:

• In 4-quart saucepan, mix bananas, lemon juice and pectin until pectin is dissolved. Heat to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly. Stir in sugar. Heat to full rolling boil, stirring constantly; remove from heat. Stir in vanilla and cinnamon.
• Immediately ladle jam into 8 sterilized jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace. Wipe rims of jars. Seal immediately. Process in boiling water bath 10 minutes.

Steps:

• 1. Add all your ingredients except bananas into a heavy saucepan then lastly slice up your bananas and turn on the heat. Bring to a boil, stirring often.
• 2. I used a potato masher to get the bananas to the consistency I wanted. Once you have it to a boil reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook until it thickens to your desired texture. Make sure you are stirring often. Now, this didn't take long for mine maybe 10 - 12 minutes or so cooking including the boiling point.
• 3. Once ready spoon mixture into sterilized hot jars and seal with lids. Then process with a 15 minute hot water bath.
• 4. Here is FDA link to the level of PH/acidity in vegetables and fruits. https://www.healthycanning.com/canning-bananas/ ***** (IF YOU ARE UNSURE ABOUT CANNING THIS RECIPE, PUT YOUR JARS IN THE REFRIGERATOR AND ALSO PRESSURE CAN TILL I CAN FIND A DEFINITE ANSWER FOR YOU ALL.)

Steps:

• MASH bananas thoroughly. Measure exactly 3 cups prepared fruit into 6- or 8-quart saucepot.
• Add lemon juice and fruit protector; stir until well blended.
• STIR in pectin.
• Add butter to reduce foaming, if desired.
• Bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly.
• ADD sugars; stir until well blended. Add walnuts and spices; mix well. Return to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Remove from heat.
• Skim off any foam with metal spoon.
• LADLE immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/8 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with 2-piece lids. Screw bands tightly.
• Process 10 minutes in a hot water bath or use the inversion method. Remove jars and place upright on towel to cool completely. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middle of lid with finger. (If lid springs back, lid is not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.).
