Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh or frozen peaches (peeled, pitted, and diced)
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons Liquid pectin (optional, for thicker jam)
Instructions
Prepare the peaches: If using fresh peaches, peel, pit, and dice them into small pieces. If using frozen peaches, allow them to thaw before dicing into smaller chunks if necessary.
Add the diced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg to your bread machine pan.
Set your bread machine to the 'Jam' setting. Close the lid and let the machine begin its mixing and heating process.
After about 60 minutes (or according to your bread machine’s jam program time), check the consistency of the jam. If you prefer a thicker consistency, stir in the liquid pectin at this stage.
Allow the bread machine to complete the jam cycle, which should take about 90 minutes total. The peaches will break down and the sugar will dissolve, creating a luscious, spiced jam.
Once the jam cycle is complete, carefully pour the hot jam into sterilized glass jars. Let the jam cool slightly, then seal with lids. Allow the jam to cool completely before refrigerating.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or transfer into freezer-safe containers to store for up to 6 months in the freezer.
