 Ingredients List

  • -Dottie Cross TMPJ72B
  • 4 lb Ripe peaches;
  • Pitted and quartered
  • -(about 3-1/2 quarts)
  • 2 c Water
  • 2 c Sugar
  • 1/4 c Lemon juice
  • -Grated zest of 2 lemons
  • 2 ts Ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 ts Ground cloves

 Directions

In a large saucepan, bring the peaches and water to a boil over a medium
heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring often, until peaches are
very tender. In a food processor fitted with the metal blade or a blender,
process the fruit mixture in batches until smooth. Return the puree to the
saucepan and stir in the sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, cinnamon, and
cloves. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce the
heat to low and simmer, stirring often, until thickened and reduced to
about 6 cups, about 30 minutes. Ladle the peach butter into hot, sterilized
jars, leaving 1/4 inch of headroom. Wipe the rims clean and put the lids on
the jars. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Remove the jars
from the water and cool completely at room temperature. Makes about 3
pints. Source: "An Edible Christmas" (A Treasury of Recipes for the
