Ingredients
Directions
- Rinse peaches, don't remove skins. Slice thinly, should equal about 9 c..
- In a 5 qt saucepan, over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, cook peaches with water till soft (approximately 20 min). Puree through food mill, discarding the skins. (Should equal about 6 1/2 c. puree.)
- Pour puree into 13x9x2 inch stainless steel, aluminum or possibly porcelain coated baking pan. Thoroughly stir in sugar. Cook in 350 degree oven (no need to preheat) till thick, about 1 1/2 hrs; stir twice during first hour and once again, especially around sides of pan, after removing from oven.
- At once upon removal spoon warm mix into clean, dry warm canning jars with 2 part lids leaving 1/2 inch headspace. With damp towel wipe edge of each jar; cover with caps and bands and screw tight. Process in boiling water bath for 5 min. Place jars and wire rack to cold. Label and store in cold dark place. Makes about 7 (1/2 pint) jars.
- NOTE: If desired you can add in a cinnamon stick (broken in half) to the peaches when you cook them. Remove the cinnamon before you puree the peaches.
- I like it with the cinnamon best.
