Steps
- Look at the ingredients list to find what you need. Put all those things out in front of you.
- Take the bananas. Slice the banana into very thin pieces. This is a must if you want the Jam to turn out right. Put them aside in a bowl for later.
- Fill the pot with 1 cup of sugar. Stir continuously. Cook until brown. Medium heat. You can't step away for more than 10 seconds.This will burn if not watched carefully.
- Once brown, add 1/3 a cup of water and the banana slices you put aside. Add the water then the bananas.
- Once the ingredients are added, keep stirring on low heat. When soft and no banana pieces are noticeable, turn off heat.
- Put in a container or covered bowl and put in the fridge until chilled.
