Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Easy Peach Freezer Jam.
Step 1
To start your delicious peach jam, grab a large bowl and mix together the white sugar and finely chopped peaches.
Step 2
Give it a good stir and let it sit for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 3
This waiting time is crucial as it allows the sweet flavors to blend beautifully.
Step 4
In a separate small bowl, combine the powdered fruit pectin with fresh lemon juice, mixing until it’s well incorporated.
Step 5
Once that’s ready, add this mixture to your peach and sugar blend.
Step 6
Now, stir the peach mixture continuously for about 3 minutes.
Step 7
You want to keep going until the sugar has completely dissolved and the mixture feels smooth and no longer grainy.

Next, it’s time to pour your vibrant jam into food storage containers.
Step 9
Remember to leave about half an inch of space at the top of each container to allow for expansion when freezing.
Step 10
After you’ve filled the containers, cover them up and let them sit at room temperature for around 24 hours.
Step 11
This is the magic moment when your jam sets perfectly.
Step 12
