Instructions

Peel, pit, and dice the peaches and place them in a large pot. Crush the peaches using a potato masher or fork to your desired consistency.
Stir in lemon juice and pectin until well mixed.
Set the pot over medium-high heat and stir constantly while the mixture heats. Bring to a boil.
Add sugar all at once and stir until dissolved completely.
Return the mixture to a full rolling boil and boil for 1 minute, stirring continuously to prevent sticking.
Remove from heat and skim off any foam from the surface.
Pour hot jam into clean mason jars, leaving about ¼ inch space at the top. Wipe rims clean and seal with lids.
Cool jars to room temperature before storing in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or in the freezer for up to 6 months.

Notes

Ensure peaches are ripe for the best flavor.
Store the jam in sterilized jars to prolong shelf life.
This jam can also be used as a topping for pancakes or desserts.
