I was impressed by all the wonderful reviews of this recipe. It did taste good, but none of the jars sealed. I tried it twice! I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what I did wrong. Since we can't use it as gifts, I guess we'll have to eat all the jars ourselves! :)

This is an excellent recipe and a great gift idea for the holidays. I have already made 6 batches. The bread is so very moist and it smells like fresh baked banana bread when you pop the seal on the jar. It is time consuming but well worth it!!

You can make this with 2 cups of any fruit that you like. Just be sure not to exceed 2 cups of fruit if you plan to make it in the jars. I have always made it with pumpkin puree. I double the cinnamon when I use pumpkin. I've also used applesauce, but the pumpkin is my favorite. I make this every year for gifts. I originally made it in the jars, but when it got to where I was making 24-36 each year, it was too time consuming. So now I make it in mini-loaf pans and wrap them in colored Saran wrap. Everyone looks forward to receiving them each year!

This is outstanding! The bread stays moist and absolutely delicious in the jar and is so easy to make. I halved the recipe to make some 'testers' and they were wonderful. It is easy to get out of the jar, and we had no problems sealing them or baking them. The first time I put the jars on a cookie sheet, but then the jars did not cook completely evenly (top browned faster), so cook them right on the rack. I forgot the nuts but it still tasted so good, almost like banana cake!

My daughter (8) and I made this recipe together, it was fun to watch the bread rise in the jar and they made cute gifts during the holiday. Walnuts worked well with the recipe also =)

Soooo good! Bake on a large cookie sheet, jars will be much more stable. Don't try to double this batter in the same mixing bowl it will not fit. I have a big Kitchen Aid mixer and it wouldn't hold a double batch. This is really a good recipe and everyone raves about it. Thanks Linda Jean for sharing such a fun recipe!!! I baked on a large heavy cooking sheet and they baked up beautifully, no problems. The first batch I placed on oven rack and they fell over when I checked them,like a domino reaction what a mess I had in my oven! Before you decide how to cook, see how the jars fit on your oven rack.Then decide how to bake. Some veiwers after mine had trouble using a sheet, but I must state that I used a very heavy, stainless steel, bakery quality sheet. Not light aluminum or the unstick kind. I don't think you would get proper results if you don't. Jars should not be touching,should be enough space between jars for good heat circulation. I had excellant results this way. Good luck if you try this,just use your own judgement on how to bake.

I just made these with 8 ounce Jelly jars and they turned out perfect filling with 1/2 cup of batter. I will put these jars in inexpensive mugs with a packet of hot cocoa mix. wrap with cellophane and ribbon for a cute little gift. Thanks for the recipe and gift idea!!!

This is DIVINE!! I have already made it twice, and the second time, instead of jars, I put it in 3 loaf pans, and what I had left over went into a heart-shaped Pampered Chef Bread Tube. (Those had to cook about an hour.) I also cut the cinnamon and cloves in half, to see what kind of difference it made. I have no doubt everyone will love these too. I have already given this recipe to my neighbor and she has told everyone else! Thanks Linda Jean!

The only change I made is I only used 1/4 teaspoon of cloves because I am not a big fan of cloves. Yummy! My husband and I ate a whole jar of bread in one day! This is a WONDERFUL recipe for banana bread! I have made two batches so far to give away as gifts. I cut a 7 inch circle with pinking shears out of a fabric with Christmas designs. I unscrewed the jar ring (after completely sealed and cooled) and laid it on the lid and screwed the ring back on. A ribbon or raffia bow tied around the ring with a gift tag is all it needs to complete the presentation of the gift.

This is a wonderful recipe. I scaled the recipe up to serve 36 instead of 24 so that I would have enough to fill a full case of 12 mason jars. It turned out perfectly the first time I made it. Rave reviews from family and friends. It is just so neat to be able to bake in the jars. I will be trying this technique with other recipes also.

This was a great recipe! Mine has lasted far longer than 6 weeks. It can last months in the pantry and still taste "just-baked."
