I love the bright, juicy flavor of peaches. It's so nice to open a jar of this and enjoy it on a hot buttered biscuit. It pairs nicely with ham and sausage...making me hungry just thinking about it (:

    Add peach quarters and juice to dutch oven. Cook on medium-high until peaches are soft about 10 minutes. Allow to cool enough to pour into blender.

    Cook on low until thick and bubbly stirring often. Cook time for me was about 3 hours.
  • 5
    In a large stock pot boil clean jars, lids for 10 minutes. Remove and fill to 1/4" to the top.
  • 6
    Place back in stock pot. Boil in water bath for 10 minutes. Turn off heat and allow to sit for another 10 minutes.
  • 7
    Place in a location and do not touch for 24 hours. Check lids have set properly - if not refrigerate immediately. Store others in pantry. Enjoy!
