Bake Bread in Jam and Jelly Jars

[TWP]

If you have a set of jam and jelly jars setting around waiting to be used, this is an easy way to make AND STORE bread.

DO NOTE: if you take the jars out of the oven and immediately screw on the lids, the bread may be stored for some time (weeks, months?) without refrigeration.  That makes it good for backpack and preps both.

NOTE ALSO:  Use jars with NO SHOULDER (straight sides) or you will end up carving the bread out of the jars in chunks, rather than in a nice, whole cylinder.  Much easier to cut and serve...

There is no special recipe for the bread itself, just about any recipe will work.  The link gives quite a few options for bread and baked deserts using the bake-in-a-jar concept.
