Steps:
- Squeeze the lime juice into a bowl and chop the bananas into it in little chunks. I didn't really need to worry about my bananas darkening, because they were so ripe they had darkened already. To take into account for having overripe bananas, and hence sweeter bananas, I simply reduced the amount of sugar in the original recipe by about 3/4 of a cup.
- So then measure the sugar and water into a pot, and stir to dissolve sugar as you bring syrup to a boil.
- Once it's just starting to boil, add banana mixture and boil over low heat for about 30 minutes or until thick. Keep stirring it all the time to stop it from sticking to the sides, and to kind of mash up the banana as you go. Along the way add the cinnamon to the mixture, adding less or more depending on how much you want this flavour coming through. The mixture will slowly start to cook down over time, and will eventually turn into a thick gooey kind of paste, which will get even gooier after it cools down.
- The jam is done when a spoon scraped across bottom of pan leaves a track that closes slowly.
- Once you're done, spoon the jam into hot sterilized jars and seal.
