PEACH FREEZER JAM

I've been churning out a lot of peach recipes this year. A few favorite desserts include peach cobbler and peach pie with graham cracker crust. I've got a lot more peach desserts listed at the end of the post. 
For breakfast I like to enjoy a peach stuffed french toast. Or a simple toast with this peach freezer jam. It's SO good!

If you want to find the EASIEST way to make freezer jam, you've come to the right place.

INGREDIENTS NEEDED FOR THE EASIEST PEACH FREEZER JAM

There are a few different products available to make freezer jam. I have often used the Ball freezer jam pectin. Most brands of regular pectin have a freezer jam version.  However, I saw this Jam in a Jiffy and thought I'd give it a try. 

It's by far the easiest way to make jam I've come across! You need just 3 ingredients.

You can use this pectin mix for pretty much any type of fruit you desire. Try it with apricots, strawberries, raspberries, or any other type of berry.

HELPFUL KITCHEN TOOLS

You can use multiple things to chop up your peaches into finely diced pieces. Below is a list of options that may work well for you. If your blender has a food chop option, you could use that, but you don't want the peaches blended.

HOW TO MAKE FREEZER JAM IN 4 EASY STEPS

Here's the quick and easy instructions. For more details, keep reading.
  1. Chop 4 cups of peaches
  2. Stir in 1/2 cup of water
  3. Add the contents of the Jam in a Jiffy pouch and stir until combined and shiny. Let sit one minute and stir again.
  4. Pour into jars and refrigerate or freeze immediately.
Begin by pitting, peeling and chopping up your peaches. The directions say to use crushed fruit. Since peaches are pretty large, and I don't like large chunks of fruit in my jam, I decided to use my food chopper. 

It made pretty short work of it. I'd chop up a couple peaches at a time until they were the desired size and then added them to my measuring bowl. You need 4 cups of crushed/chopped up fruit.

Next add 1/2 cup of water to the peaches and give it a stir.

Lastly, add the Jam in a Jiffy pouch. Stir until well combined (about a minute). It should be shiny at this point. Let it sit for 1 minute and give it another stir.

At this point you can taste and add more sugar if desired.

If the jam thickens up more than you'd like, you can add a bit more water to thin.

Adding jam to jars




Pour into clean jars or other containers. Refrigerate and/or freeze immediately.

The jam will last about 3 weeks in the fridge or up to a year in the freezer.
