Peach Jam Recipe
Pick some peaches and make some fresh jam
Ingredients
- 4 pounds fresh peaches, peeled, pitted and chopped (4 ½ cups after prep)
- ½ cup Peachtree schnapps
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 3 cups sugar
- 1 box Sure Jell Fruit Pectin for less sugar needed recipes
- 1 teaspoon butter
Instructions
- In medium saucepan, combine peaches, schnapps and lemon juice.
- Mix ¼ cup of the sugar with the pectin in a small bowl and then stir into the fruit.
- Add butter and bring mixture to a full rolling boil on high heat, stirring constantly to avoid scorching on the bottom of the pan.
- Stir in remaining sugar and return to full rolling boil. Boil 1 minute and then test the jam for jelling.
- Ladle jam into prepared sterilized jars and seal as directed on Sure Jell instructions.
Notes
Mixing the pectin with some of the sugar prevents clumping.
