Time 1h10m

Yield 128

Number Of Ingredients 6

10 cups peeled and quartered peaches
6 cups white sugar, divided
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup fresh blueberries
1 tablespoon butter
½ teaspoon pure almond extract

Steps:

  • Immerse 8 pint jars in simmering water until jam is ready. Wash lids and rings in warm soapy water.
  • Combine peaches, 5 cups sugar, and lemon juice in a large stainless steel or other nonreactive pot over medium heat. Bring to a low boil and cook for 10 to 20 minutes.
  • While peaches are cooking, combine blueberries and remaining sugar in a separate pot over medium heat. Bring to a low boil and cook until just starting to thicken, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Add blueberries to the pot with the peaches and cook until thickened to the consistency of jam, about 10 minutes more. Remove from heat, add butter and almond extract, and stir well.
  • Pack jam into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • When choosing peaches for preserves, select ripe, firm fruit with a deep yellow color. Avoid peaches that are bruised or have blemishes.
  • Blueberries should also be ripe and firm. Avoid berries that are bruised or moldy.
  • Use a large pot or Dutch oven to make the preserves. This will give the fruit plenty of room to cook and prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Stir the preserves frequently while they are cooking. This will help to prevent them from scorching.
  • Test the preserves for doneness by placing a small amount on a cold plate. If the preserves wrinkle when you push your finger across them, they are ready.
  • Store the preserves in sterilized jars in a cool, dark place. The preserves will keep for up to a year.

Conclusion:

Peach blueberry preserves are a delicious and versatile way to enjoy the flavors of summer all year long. They can be used as a spread on toast or crackers, as a filling for pies and tarts, or as a topping for ice cream or yogurt. With a little time and effort, you can easily make your own peach blueberry preserves at home.
