    Honey Spiced Peaches an Easy Way to Preserve Summer

    These Honey Spiced Peaches are an easy way to preserve your summer peach harvest.

    I had some peaches from the CSA and a neighbor also gifted me some from their tree. I didn't feel like standing over a hot stove to make jam today. So, I decided to can them to use later, probably in Aunt Geneva's Peach Cobbler recipe.

    The recipe is another winner from my guide to all things canning: The Ball Blue Book Guide to Preserving. (affiliate link!) If you have never tried canning before, water bath canning is EASY! Especially a recipe like this one that does not involve gelling. Get all of the details from Ball/Kerr here.

    In case you need tips on peeling peaches, here's my easy method:

    Honey Spiced Peaches

    Ingredients
     

    • 4 lb peaches
    • 2 cups water
    • 1 cup honey
    • ½ cup sugar
    • 3 sticks cinnamon
    • ¾ teaspoons whole allspice
    • ¾ teaspoons whole cloves
    • 3 pints canning jars with lids (sterilized)

    Instructions
     

    • Blanch peaches to remove peel. Slice in half and remove pit.
    • In a medium saucepan, combine water, honey and sugar. Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.
    • GENTLY add peaches and stir until coated in syrup. Cook until peaches are heated, about 3 minutes.
    • Pack hot peaches into hot jars, leaving ½ inch head space.
    • Add a cinnamon stick, ¼ teaspoon cloves and ¼ teaspoon allspice to each jar. Remove air bubbles from jar, add extra syrup if needed.
    • Adjust two piece cap. Process in a boiling water canner for 20 minutes

    Notes

    These look best with freestone peaches. Cling peaches taste equally delicious, but are a bit harder to pit cleanly.

      I have a sister who can’t have sugar. Is there anything I can substitute in this recipe for the sugar?

        You can use all honey or substitute another sweetener. BUT, I am not sure how safe it would be for canning. I think it is okay, but I would consult the Ball website to see what they say.
