Directions
Exotic Mango Banana Jam Delite, This will bring the tropic to you! Serve it on bread, in a cake glaze a chicken or over cream cheese as a spread Love to see what you do with it! Will make about 8-10 (8 oz) half pints for gift giving or about 160 servings, 1 Tbsp each for your own consumption ;), I forgot to add used 1/2 a vanilla bean but scraped the inside out and mixed that in as apposed to leaving the 1/2 vanilla bean in and extracting it later I also used Fruit Fresh and a potato masher to ‘crush’ the fruit the mango I sliced off the seed and found it was little too chunky in the end so got the kitchen aid hand blender out and vitamised that a bit to a smoother consistency I also used a candy thermometer – like I said, all new to this and working out what works for me 10 stars for this awesome concoction! thanks so much, Delicious!
Following this recipe exactly, however, only yielded 12 1/4 pint (125 ml) jars
