Banana bread made in a jar. Why? Pretty darn crazy, huh? Why would anyone want to make banana bread in a mason jar? Well, for a couple of reasons: I love making these beauties as gifts. I can make a bunch at a time and send them over to neighbors as a nice gesture, pass them out as party favors, give them as gifts at Christmas, as teacher gifts, or store in my pantry. If sealed properly, they can keep for a few months in the freezer! Think food storage people! You can decorate the jars with a circle of batting and fun fabric under the jarring and add a pretty label. So darn cute!

Ingredients

1/2 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
3 Ripe bananas, mashed
1 tsp. Pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup Sour cream
1 Large egg plus egg yolk
1 cup Granulated sugar
1/2 cup Unsalted butter
1/2 tsp. Kosher salt
1 tsp. Baking soda
2 cups All-purpose flour

Method

01

Preheat oven to 325℉. Spray the insides of four half-pint mason jars with cooking spray.
02

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
03

In another large bowl, mix together butter, sugar, egg and egg yolk, sour cream, and vanilla. Add mashed bananas and stir until combined.
04

Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips and divide between mason jars, filling each jar about halfway.
05

Place on a large baking sheet and bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
