PEACH FREEZER JAM - EATING WELL MAGAZINE
I got this recipe out of the August '08 Eating Well Magazine. I made it using about 3/4 C of sugar and apple juice. It worked great. I'm putting the recipe here so I don't lose it, because my family loved it. I like the fact that it is lower in sugar than other freezer jam recipes. The magazine says not to use regular pectin in place of the no sugar needed pectin. I used Ball brand natural no sugar needed pectin. The prep time listed does not include the setting up stage after placing in jars.

Steps:
- Place white grape (or apple) juice, lemon zest and lemon juice in a large saucepan.
- Gradually stir in pectin; continue stirring until completely dissolved.

- Boil hard for 1 minute. Remove from the heat.
- Immediately stir in the mashed peaches. Stir vigorously for 1 minute.
- Stir in sugar to taste until dissolved.
- Divide the jam among six 8-ounce canning jars, leaving at least 1/2 inch of space between the top of the jam and the top of the jar (this space allows the jam to expand as it freezes).
- Cover with lids and let the jam stand at room temperature until set, about 24 hours.
- Store in refrigerator or freezer until ready to use.
- This keeps 3 weeks in the refrigerator or 1 year in the freezer.

Tips:
- Use ripe, fresh peaches for the best flavor.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can mash the peaches by hand.
- Be sure to measure the sugar and lemon juice accurately, as too much or too little of either can affect the texture and flavor of the jam.
- Bring the jam to a full rolling boil before removing it from the heat. This will help to thicken the jam and prevent spoilage.
- Process the jars of jam in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes to seal them properly.
- Store the jam in a cool, dark place for up to a year.
