Peach Freezer Jam

Ingredients

  • 3 c. fresh peaches
  • 1 T. fresh-squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 c. sugar
  • 1/2 a vanilla bean split in half length-wise
  • 1 box 1.75 oz. SURE-JELL fruit pectin
  • 1/2 c. water

Instructions

  • Peel, seed and slice the fresh peaches.
  • In a large glass bowl, add the peaches, lemon juice and sugar. Mash together with a potato masher... you will still have some small chunks of fresh peaches with the juice.
  • Scrape the vanilla bean into the bowl and mix well. Let stand for about 10 minutes.
  • In a small sauce pan, mix together the SURE-JELL and water. Heat over high and boil the mixture for 1 minute.
  • Add the SURE-JELL mixture to the peach mixture and stir constantly for 3 minutes.
  • Ladle the peach jam into clean 1-cup jars (I used Ball freezer jars). Freeze until ready to use.
