Ingredients

  • 4 cups peeled and crushed fresh peaches
  • 1⁄4 cup lemon juice
  • 1 package (1.75 oz.) powdered fruit pectin
  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 5 1⁄2 cups sugar

Directions

  • Add peaches to a large kettle; with a wooden spoon, stir in lemon juice. Stir in pectin. Let mixture stand for 20 minutes.
  • Add corn syrup and stir to blend; add sugar and blend well. Cook mixture over low heat to about 100°F. It should be warm to the touch. Do not allow mixture to get very hot.

Freezer jams can be stored for up to 1 year in the freezer, and they will keep for several weeks in the refrigerator.
