FAQ

Canned breads and cakes are typically made by pouring batter into glass canning jars and baking them in the oven. Once the cake or bread is done, the steaming jars are taken out of the oven and then sealed and cooled to create a vacuum. Many recipes claim that they can be stored without refrigeration for about a year.
The bread was also steam-cooked over an open fire, as ovens weren't initially available. Molasses and buttermilk were later added to the recipe, along with other ingredients, and New England or Boston brown bread became a regional staple. Later, this bread was steam-cooked in jars, cans and molds.
As the research shows, if a food is in a can, it can hang around for quite a while. Travel Food Atlas, for instance, claims that canned bread has a shelf life for up to 2 years, while Skilled Survival says that canned bread can last far longer than 2 years — up to 10 years, in fact, provided the can isn't damaged.
This steamed, molasses-laden comfort food comes in a can. You'll need an opener to crack the lid off and thwack or jiggle out the dense roll of bread inside. For some New Englanders, especially in the Boston area and Portland, Maine, it's a nostalgic childhood tradition.
Foods that are comprised mainly of fat (such as oils, mayonnaise, or lard) are not safe to be canned. They have a low moisture content which means it doesn't have enough water in it to help the contents reach 240°F.
