Cranberry Banana Jam

Ingredients:
cranberries, dried, sweetened
water, bottled, generic
bananas, raw
sugars, granulated
pectin, unsweetened, dry mix
lemon juice, raw

Directions:
Prep jars by sterilizing in boiling water.
Set jars aside on a kitchen towel.
In a large saucepan, combine cranberries and water over medium heat.
Simmer for 10 minutes or until cranberries start to pop.
Next stir in mashed bananas and sugar.
Increase heat to medium-high; boil for 1 minute.
Remove from the stove and stir in pectin and lemon juice.
Pour the hot jam into sterilized jars.
Wipe the rims of the jars with a damp cloth to remove any spills.
Attach two-piece lids to each jar.
Tighten finger tight.
Process in a boiling water for 10 minutes.
Lift the jars from the boiling water using canning utensils or rubber-coated tongs.
Place the jars of jam at least one inch apart on a folded towel, and lay another kicthen towel over the jars so they cool slowly.
After 10-15 minutes, you will start to hear the lids pop (that is a good thing!).
Let the jars cool completely.
