Banana Jam

We are probably well past the jam making season now, but I happened upon a recipe for Banana Jam. I like to look for something a bit different, so I thought I would give it a go. This is only my second attempt at jam making, so I am by no means an expert.








I altered the recipe slightly to allow for my love of cinnamon, I'm sure better cooks than me could think of other lovely flavours to enhance it.
6 very ripe bananas, 1lb sugar, 3tsp lemon juice, sprinkle of cinnamon.

Mash bananas, add all ingredients together, stir. Bring slowly to the boil, and then boil rapidly till it reaches setting point. Pour into sterilised jars.
It seems to boil away to nothing so I only really got one and a half jars full. Which might be plenty depending on how it tastes when cool.
