Peach Jam

Ingredients:
3 Cups Finely Chopped Peaches (about 10 ripe peaches, peeled & pitted)
4 + 1/2 cups sugar
2 Tbsp. fresh squeezed lemon juice (1 lemon will get you at least this much)
1 Box Sure-Jell
3/4 cup water

Directions:
Peel, pit, and finely chop the peaches and place them in a large bowl. Add the lemon juice and sugar and stir till well blended. In a small sauce pan, mix the water and sure jell. Heat (stirring constantly) until the mixture is boiling and boil for 1 minute. After 1 minute is up, add the contents of the saucepan to the rest of the ingredients. Stir the ingredients for about 3 minutes, or until the sugar is completely dissolved and no longer grainy. Pour jam into containers and let sit at room temperature for 24 hours to set. After 24 hours is up, place the jam in the freezer and store for up to 1 year.

Difficulty: Easy
Time to Make: about 20 minutes
