CAN CAKES AND BREADS 

Thanks for the video. You can make egg-less cakes and this extends the life of the cake. Also, Bourbon and cinnamon base recipes spices extend the life of the cakes. I personally like banana bread, spice cake, angel food, egg-less cakes.... Cookies can be made on a sheet.. use hot jars from the oven and sprinkle coco and powdered sugar between to keep them from sticking together, You can also do sugar cookies and sprinkle confectionery sugar with lemon extract.. Put the hot lids on and rim and wait for the seal to happen. I also learned if you can get the cake about 1/4 inch from the top they last longer. Too much of a gap seems to make them spoil faster. I also like coconut oil to spray inside the jars. Coconut oil is anti bacterial and can help. Hope this helps guys....keep learning and keep canning.

I ship these to my Sailor with icing in a can separate with birthday goodies, hats, noise makers....

I've made pimpkin, zucinni and cranberry/orange bread in jars for many years. It's awesome, easy and keeps well for at least 2 years.

Been canning pumpkin bread and cornbread in a jar since I was a kid. I'm still here. LOL

When I was in the Army in 1965-1968, one of the mysterious things (to me) that we had in our C-Rations was bread in a can. It was fresh, tasty, and the can was dated 1947! The bread was even browned! I love to can and have always wondered how they could preserve bread for 20 years like that? The most amazing thing to me was, it was very nicely browned on top and sides. It had a light weight corrugated paper around it and a sheet of what looked like parchment on the bottom. The paper was sort of stuck to the little loaf, but not so tightly that when you pulled it off, the crust was damaged. The only thing I can figure out as to how they made it was, they baked the little loaf in a form, then wrapped it in the paper, stuffed it into the can, cold sealed the can then steamed it to safety heat in a pressure steamer for 20 minutes or so. I have never tried baking any bread product in the jar, then sealing the hot jar after it came out of the oven- But, practically thinking about it- I can not imagine it would have any safety issues and once the jar was sealed hot (probably cooled down to about 250 deg F or so, there is nothing that could survive that that could cause it to spoil. Thanks for your nice video. You have given me encouragement to also experiment with my own ideas on canning bakery products. I've been canning for more than 30 years and have never tried it! Something new and challenging....YaY!

I bet greasing the corn bread jars with bacon grease would be fabulous! I think I'm going to try that soon.

Ive been making cakes in a jar for years! Decorate the finished jars and mail as a birthday cake surprise

I love when holiday cake flavors go on clearance. Then i just can them up

I'm in rebel canners too. I tried to find this video but I couldn't so I asked there for help. Thank God I found you. Mine are going in the oven now.

thank you for the reference to Rebel Canning! I had never heard of it so I went over right away and joined! And you answered the only question I had which was, how long can these sit on the shelf! So happy to know I can get meals and dessert and snacks ready before winter takes away my usefulness and strength!

Yay! I'm in Rebel Canners, too! However, I'm new to canning so I'm going to go by "the book" at first and then venture out!

Love making these breads. I make pumpkin bread and gave them to.my husband's friends at work. So good and moist. You did good

I did this with banana bread and banana chocolate peanut butter brownies. I had lots of frozen bananas from my smoothie days trying to get healthy before learning smoothies has just as much sugar. But I didn't want to waste the bananas. The banana bread came out perfectly in quart jars and I even had to chop off the top that came up too high and it was like a muffin top. They both sealed. But my brownies where in pints and I tried to cheat it because I knew it wasn't going to rise so I put more batter in each jar but I didn't consider because it was so much and so many in one convection oven I should have cooked them longer and take the time to tooth pick check the middle no matter what. They sealed half baked but i went to check after a day and scooped them all out into a freezer Ziploc and pressed it like frozen ground beef and they are still the best brownies I ever had even though they are now some other type of half baked frozen creation that I slice out a piece like aged bacon lol. It looks like pure fudge slices. This is how I will be making brownies from now on. Not complaining but anyone who tries this remember aways continue to do the testing for doneness. No matter who is rushing you to do something else. I rather leave them in a little longer than not long enough. Happy Holidays John 15:5 King James Version 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. Amen

Yes this is so cool! I can’t wait to do a bunch too! Thank you!

I love this idea!!! Can't wait to try this for Christmas gifting! If you put your canning funnel over the top of your jar before you spray it, this might save the rim of jar from getting oil on it. Easier to clean the top of the jar. Thanks for sharing.

Love the idea. Great for a single person.

I have done this only with regular size cake mixes. A cake mix will do 4 or 5 jars. I also did brownie mix. I did choc fudge cake, yellow cake, choc cake, and butter cake. All turned out and the choc fudge cake is so moist. You really have to be careful because each jar is more than just a slice of cake. It is a fourth of a cake. I will try corn bread next.

I want to thank you prepped pan I'm learning alot for your videos your a blessing

eating out at restaurants and letting angry and apathetic people handle your food is a bigger risk than the risk of bacteria in the chance foiled canning. At any rate, jars seem to be a better way to freeze breads if you don't want to shelf store.

I love the rebel canner group. I have added so much to my stock because of the group. Planning on doing cakes so I can store them especially with what has been going on lately

I have Canned for many years I’m 72 but I never tried baking cakes in a jar that’s amazing you’re right about having the oil on the ram your lids will not seal. I was thinking maybe if youPut the ring on the jar before you sprayed it it would not get on the rim of the jar. Take the ring off then fill the jar if it’s on the ring the oil you can wash it. That might help Lord bless you

Whoohoooo I'm also on rebel canners as well as a few other canning sites on fb :) I've done box brownies - they came out fantastic !!!

Just joined your channel. Even if it was from 5 years ago. Cornbread and cakes in a jar, sounds GREAT!!!

TY for helping me put sweets in my pantry

I made cakes and muffins from scratch , no box mix, to send to my Son in Iraq. I used 1/2 pints. They were Great.

New subscriber here, I thought I might love you when I read the title of this video, but I KNEW I loved you when you said they should last up to 2 years, but "I doubt these will make it through the weekend" 🤣❤ My twin sister?? Lol ❤🤗 I hope I can convince my husband to let me try these ❤ thank you so much

I did cake mix and added the icing to the mix before baking....turned out super good!

Hey Pam ! This is awesome : ) gonna give it a try !

Momma used to do this back in 1980s we are still all alive and they were tasty

In the past I have canned cornbread, banana bread and pumpkin orange bread. The cornbread did not keep but a few weeks but I just recently opened the banana and pumpkins from 2016 (now 2021) and was 😋 delicious. I think the trick was that I had added acid to them with orange juice. Recently (again)I have made cornbread but I added Fruit Fresh and some ketchup to the mix. I have a friend that makes the most awesome hush puppies with her fish and uses onion and ketchup in the recipe so that's where I got the idea. I also made some Hawaiian yeast bread (with pineapple juice) in cans. Pineapple being the acid of course. I will have to get back in a year or so and let you how the experiment went.

I don't know how they did it but in the 70's we used to eat sea ration pound cake. canned during ww1. so it can be done. of knowing the army it was made of all preservatives, or sprinkled with agent orange. but it was tasty.

Awesome. I'm going to give this a try.

OMG. I tried canning a FRESH PEACH CAKE, but unfortunately they really did not turn out the way I had hoped. I think there was too much moisture. So seeing all that you canned, I am confident that my next batches will be much better. Lesson learned, do not use the fruits. Thank you so very much for giving me another canning site to join and thank you so very much for actually showing me what to do!

as jiffy is such a small batch I use full size boxes of cake mix , or make my own .. comes out great ,,, banana bread is awesome in jars

I'm in Rebel Canners! Tonight I'll be doing my first ever jar of breads. Starting with cornbread and cake and muffins!

This turned out amazing thanks so much. I can’t wait to do the bell peppers and onions I saw you do next 💜 and yes a pc scares the heck outta me

I still have to do some of these & some jelly jars of chili, soups & stew (winter stash in my work locker.) Homemade meals when stranded at work during a snow storm will make my life happier.

Omg honey, I can't wait to try these

I came across your videos by accident (I was looking for how store bought biscuits were canned and your canning biscuits video popped up) and I learned something knew! I'm not a canner, as of yet, but I may try in the future

I have been cannng dfferent knds of breads & the family secret X-Mas Pudding wth my Mom, since I was 15 so this year will be 46 years of cannng & I am stll here. My Mom will be 97 next week & I stll have a time keepng up wth her. A Couple years back I canned Bananas & used them to make bread & puddng. They turn pink when they are canned. I have always used the water bath canner for the max time of three hours wth the jars flled half full. I just did 32 jars last weekend and they came out perfect.

With the yellow cake mix, I would like to add berries or fresh berry syrup to the mix, perhaps layering, would you then water bath can them, or not make any adjustments. I'm thinking of making these for my husband's breakfasts.

This is awesome, but please get a tripod because we are getting motion sickness!

Pam thank you for the response please do some more videos.

Just need to clarify the sealing with lid. Did you say in a comment, that when you took them out of oven, you immediately added the lids and they sealed. You don't have to water bath or pressure cook to seal the jars. Please let me know if this is correct, if wrong please give me correct steps. Thank you. Can't wait to try.

love this idea.

Do these hold well in storage? I like the fudge in the 2 jars. That way a scoop of ice cream and hot fudge poured over right in the jar.... YUM!

Heart9 it. Love Rebel canners are you in the canning group S.O S. ( Stock our Shelves)?

Shut the door!!! Really!!! They would never last that long. OMG now I have to try this.

I joined that rebel canners group and immediately left due to the horrible language those ladies were using But I will subscribe to this channel! Thanks for sharing!

I would also like to know if you have to pressure cook or water bathe the jars to seal them...

brownies in half pint or even the smaller jars would be nice. It would help me with serving sizes. Now I'm wondering about pumpkin pie....

Did you ever do the choc. Chip cookies??? Yummmmm

Has anyone reported how these keep? It would be interesting to hear how they hold up towards the end of that two years. VERY interesting bc if they hold up well, these would be a literal Godsend, indeed, during times of food scarcity/economic chaos. Thanks you so much for sharing! 🙏🏻❤️

I've done that back in the early 90's

Question: has anyone ever tried cornbread from their homemade cornbread they usually make?

I love this idea I'm going to can this thank you

I am in the rebel canning group on Facebook. I did banana bread and shared it on Facebook.

Some had condensation... how did they do?

im gonna haft to try this now

Hey there Rebel Canner! Joined a few weeks ago and that group is the BOMB! You did for us s huge favor with this video, I am going to do cornbread with jalapenos here in a few minutes and came here to get a few pointers. SO happy i came across your video!Thank you so much. Wish me luck LOL

Am going to can ham and beans today -this would be great addition having canned corn bread too

Rebel Canners unite!!!!!, Thanks for doing the video Pam.

Hello friends. I just subscribed. Thank you so much for the email. We appreciate the support and prayers through our loss.

im in that group love it

As the cake cools, and is covered for sealing, does condensation begin on the inside of jar, and if so, does that make the cake gooey or different consistency when it is finally opened, or would mold form? I am new to canning, but excited to begin this type of venture, also :-)

My hubby would love the chocolate ones

I'm in that group too!

Can you do this in smaller jars ?

I heard somewhere that wives send this to there husbands in the army i thought it was a great idea. Thanks for the video!

All the canning sites say don't trust canned cakes and breads done this way..I water bath canned, for 90 minutes with seals on, cinnamon rolls with syrup. They look great but now I am afraid to eat them. Apparently low acidity and water content. Lol. What do you ladies suggest? I have lemon juice in the dough and there's plenty of sugar. Also ground flax to act as preservative.

Does this oven temperature ruin the jars for later use? I understand that they are only good to use at 200 degrees. Also, do these have to be refrigerated after baked because they are not pressure sealed, or are they pantry safe? I am new at this and appreciate all of the info you can give me as far as safety. Thanks so much.

Why do you have foil around your burners? Is it to keep the stove clean?

BUTTER your jars....... 2 years later, I use a canning funnel and butter flavor spray, works great, keeps the grease off the jar edge

Cool

You are having too much fun canning all these breads......... OK I take it back, just the right amount.

I just did the cakes in jars and was yelled at by so many people on how dangerous it is. Now I don’t know what to do.

Did you process the cakes in the canner after it was baked in the oven, or will the lids seal securely after removing the jars from the oven? did you ever try skipping the oven baking, and just cook them in the canner?

Have you ever dry can pumpkin

how did you seal them??

I see that you have my cookie sheet😂👍

If you tried cookies, I wonder if you could put parchment paper layers to make actual cookies instead of a cookie log? I’d probably be tempted to do cookies in really small jars and then add like a cheesecake topping. Individual desserts.

Do you need to water bath them or anything. Awesome ideas. I need to join that group. 🤩🥰🙏

This being 5 years ago, did you do a follow up video?

I'm curious as to what causes it to seal that it doesn't mold?

She needs to answer questions that no one else answered.

How long will that last with that moisture in there without going rancid? I would love to try it. Did you find it to be soggy when you opened one or have you not opened one and tried it yet?

Could you use regular size cake mixes for this ?

nice video.

great idea! how long can you store these little cakes?

I'm thinking of trying this with pie filling and crust. Researching first🤔😁

The guys there rock too....🤔😉

Try pineapple upside down cake in the jar. You will love it!

Can you use ur own scratch recipes? I hate box mixes!

I'm part of that group too!!!

I so do loved the easy cornbread muffin in a jar vide . I can’t wait to do . I would love to get more recipes on simple canning and preserving . I’m trying to get myself to homesteading and even emergency pantry . Can you add me to group . Can others reach out to me to give me ideas please . I’m looking for off the grid practices that aren’t fda recipes . Does anyone can meats? Cold pack ? I didn’t think you could use eggs but I see this recipe did . Im wanting to know everything

Have a question for you. After a couple of weeks, I have noticed that cornbread and cake are very dry. Is this normal?

You cook the cake in the oven .whenyou put them in the canner, how many minutes??

have you tried any of the homemade breads in the jars?

Can not find the rebel canners on facebook? Did you use water or milk in your cornbread? My mix calls for milk, can I just use water instead?

Have you ever made them from scratch? I'd like to make a blueberry muffin and apple cinnamon muffin but not sure what would be considered safe being from scratch. thanks.
