How to Make Strawberry Banana Jam

  1. Wash and hull 2 pounds of strawberries. Slice them into small pieces.
  2. Peel and slice 2 cups of ripe bananas.
  3. Combine strawberries, bananas, 1 cup of sugar, and 1/4 cup of lemon juice in a large saucepan.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently.
  5. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the jam has thickened to your desired consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  6. Remove from heat and let the jam cool slightly.
  7. Ladle the jam into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of headspace.
  8. Wipe the rims of the jars clean, seal them tightly, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (for proper sealing and shelf stability).
  9. Let the jars cool completely. You should hear a 'pop' sound as the jars seal.
