Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Peel, pit, and dice the peaches, then place them in a large pot. Crush the peaches with a potato masher or fork until you reach the desired consistency.
Stir in the lemon juice and pectin until well combined.
Set the pot over medium-high heat and stir constantly as the mixture heats. Bring it to a boil.
Add the sugar all at once and stir until completely dissolved.
Return to a full rolling boil and allow to boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
Remove from heat and skim off any foam from the surface.
Pour the hot jam into clean mason jars, leaving about ¼ inch of space at the top. Wipe the rims, then seal with lids.
Cool to room temperature before storing in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or the freezer for 6 months.

Notes

Make sure to use ripe peaches for the best flavor and consistency.
Store sealed jars in a cool, dark place for optimal preservation.
This jam can be enjoyed on toast, in desserts, or as a topping for yogurt.
