I have made this a few times, keeps about 3-4 months in the refrigerator, goes well as a filling in cakes, or on scones, muffins,fesh bread or whatever takes your fancy!!!

4 large bananas (ripe , but not spoiled)
125 g butter
1 1/2 cups caster sugar
1 lemon (using the juice and grated rind)

Mash the banana, using a wooden spoon oR fork. Melt the butter slowly in a heavy based pan, then add the sugar, bananas, lemon rind and juice. Cook for 10 minutes.

I have been eating this by the spoonful! I can't wait to serve it with some scones to some colleagues. I put it in a water bath and the color really lightened up to a creamy light yellow. Thanks for this keeper Tisme!

I love bananas and I love the texture of curd so this was great! I didn't "can" it but shared with everyone I could think of. Wouldn't change anything!
