Summer Sweet Peach Jam

Disclosure: This Peach Jam recipe post has been sponsored by the Washington State Fruit Commission. I received a box of Washington State Peaches to help me create this peach jam recipe as part of this years Canbassador program. All opinions are my own.

It is peach season and I was lucky enough to receive a nice big box of peaches and nectarines from the Washington State Fruit Commission so I could can with them and a recipe with all of you.

Last year I also had the pleasure of working with the Washington Fruit Commission and shared this recipe for canned Vanilla Spiced Peaches.  After I made a big batch of the Vanilla Spiced Peaches I still had some beautiful Washington State Peaches left and made this Balsamic Roasted Peach Vanilla Butter recipe.

For the past couple of years, I have been having fun canning some really awesome fruit flavor combinations. It has been a long time since I made a batch of plain Peach Jam. Now when I say plain I don't mean boring. I mean a simple peach jam with no other ingredients.

Peach jam has always been one of my favorite jam flavors. I love dipping jalapeno poppers in peach jam. It tastes so good. If you've never tried it you should!

I have to say I am so impressed with the stone fruit from Washington State. Last month they also sent me some Washington State sweet cherries. I made a couple of batches of Cherry Vanilla Pie filling with them. Then I made a Cherry Slab Pie with the Cherry Vanilla Pie Filling.

I think the Washington State Fruit Commission has ruined it for me and my kid. The cherries were so sweet and delicious. After they were all gone we picked up another brand of sweet cherries at the grocery store when they were on sale.

I kid you not my daughter wouldn't even eat them because the Washington State cherries tasted so much better. When I asked her why she wasn't eating the cherries we bought she told me because they tasted terrible compared to the Washinton State Sweet Cherries.

So now we have Washington State peaches and nectarines and it's the same thing all over again. The Washington State Peaches and Nectarines were so sweet and juicy. As a test, I picked up some other peaches and compared the flavors.

I have to say there really isn't a comparison. I don't know what I am going to do. Well, that's not true. I do know what I am going to do. I am going to be checking those labels to make sure when I am buying cherries, peaches,  and nectarines that they have been grown in Washington State.

    I’ve made peach jam for a number of years and have always followed the “Certo” recipe that is included in the packaging…until now! This IS the same recipe except for the extra lemon juice, the extended boil and processing that left the jam perfectly set with superior flavour and a deep rich colour.

    So is it 1/2 cup lemon juice in total? It says 1/4 cup to the sliced and then it says 1/4 again to the pot when you boil, just wanted to confirm the amount before making
    Thanks

      Megan the lemon juice in the bowl is to keep the peaches from browning as you work with them before you start cooking the jam.

    When you say water bath for 10 minutes in hot water, does it need to boil for 10 minutes?

      Rhonda yes you must rapidly boil the jars in the hot water bath canner for 10 minutes. You should also check for your altitude and adjust the time if needed.
