SPICED PEACH JAM
This jam is good enough to eat out of the jar! Opening a jar in the winter is like opening a jar of summer. Try it with cream cheese as an appetizer. Makes a great glaze for just about any meat or fish, too. Add 1/4 cup red hot cinnamon candies for extra spice if desired.

Steps:
- 1. Peel and roughly chop peaches. See how here: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/jam/peeling-fresh-peaches.html?p=2 Sprinkle with Fruit Fresh, toss to coat, and set aside.
- 2. Prepare jars, rings and water bath canner keeping jars hot. Measure out other ingredients. Snip corners off the two 3 oz pectin packets and set upright in a mug near the stove.
- 3. Combine peaches, sugar, red hots (if using), spices, lemon juice and butter (if using) in a large, heavy saucepan. Bring mixture to a full, rolling boil that cannot be stirred down. Stir and mash with a potato masher very frequently.
- 4. Once mixture has reached a boil that cannot be stirred down, quickly add pectin squeezing entire contents in all at once. Return to a hard boil stirring and mashing constantly for one minute. Remove from heat. Skim foam if necessary.
- 5. Fill hot jars leaving 1/4" headspace. Run a small spatula around the inside of each jar to disperse air bubbles and add additional jam to bring back to 1/4" headspace.
- 6. Carefully and thoroughly wipe the rim of each jar clean with a damp towel to ensure a good seal. Place rings and lids. Tighten lids to "fingertip" tightness. Process in boiling water bath for five minutes.
- 7. Remove jars to a clean dish towel and let rest for 12 hours. Check for seal. Reprocess or refrigerate and unsealed jars. Will keep in a dark cupboard for one year.
