    I love this stuff!! I love bananas anyway, but this is soooooooo good. I bet it'll be great on pancakes and on ice cream. 'Course right out of the jar suits me just fine too.

    This is a recipe from Jean Pare's Preserves cookbook. Makes nice little jars for church bazaars and friends. Excellent in that can be made anytime. It does require skimming foam.

    I have to revise my review of this. I gave a jar to my FIL and he loves it!!! He finished off the 1/2 pint jar in a week by himself!!He said it was the best jelly he's had!!This is very sweet. More like a jelly than a butter.I only needed 6 bananas-I guess my bananas were bigger.I didn't add the cherries.It was very easy to make. It made 8 1/2 pints jars.Use a big pot b/c it foamed up quite a bit. I had to take it off of the heat a couple of times to let it bubble down.You might want to puree the bananas-I just mashed them. It has more of a chunkier texture just mashing them.Very popular here. My FIL raves about it all of the time!
