How to Make Banana Bread In A Jar

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in the chopped walnuts or pecans (optional).
  6. Divide the batter evenly among 7 prepared pint-sized jars (leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace).
  7. Place the jars in a baking pan and add enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the jars (this helps create even baking).
  8. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Remove the jars from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan before sealing the lids tightly.
  10. Once cooled, store in a cool, dark place. Enjoy your delicious banana bread anytime within a year!
