Ingredients

Instructions

  • Peel, pit, and dice the peaches, then place them in a large pot. Use a potato masher or fork to crush the peaches until they reach your desired consistency.
  • Stir in the lemon juice and pectin, making sure everything is evenly mixed.
  • Set the pot over medium-high heat and stir constantly as the mixture heats up. Bring the peach mixture to a boil.
  • Add the sugar all at once and stir until it’s completely dissolved.
  • Return the mixture to a full rolling boil and let it boil for 1 minute, stirring the entire time to prevent sticking.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and carefully skim off any foam that may have formed on the surface.
  • Pour the hot jam into clean mason jars, leaving about ¼ inch of space at the top. Wipe the rims clean, then seal the jars with their lids.
  • Allow the jars to cool to room temperature before storing them in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or in the freezer for up to 6 months. Enjoy!
