I am looking for a recipe for a jam or spread to use up some ripe bananas. I have lots of banana bread and muffin recipes.
Thank you.

This is from an old book and I have not made it but the ones I have made are good.
Jamaica Banana Jam
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
31/2 cups diced bananas
21/4 cups sugar
1/2 cup water
Place lime juice in 1 quart measure and dice bananas into the juice. Stir with wooden spoon after dicing each banana to coat fruit with juice to keep from darkening.
Measure sugar and water into wide 21/2 quart saucepan and stir to dissolve sugar as you bring syrup to a boil. Cover tightly 1-2 minutes to dissolve sugar crystals on side of the pan.
I tried a recipe almost exactly as Spooky cat described. It was delicious. One thing I did add was a dash of cinnamon. I am a cinnamon junkie and love it on anythng so I thought why not.

Oh yes this recipe is well worth making. I made two batches, one with cinnamon and one without. Both batches turn out very good. I did put in a tablespoon of butter to stop it from foaming. The bananas had been frozen and a bit ripe but still turned out perfect. Thank you so much for the recipe.
