Easy Homemade Peach Butter Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the peaches, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon and cloves. Transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until peaches are very soft, stirring occasionally., Stir in tapioca. Cook, uncovered, on high for 1 hour or until thickened. Pour into jars or freezer containers; cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Cover and refrigerate up to 3 weeks or freeze up to 1 year. To use frozen peach butter: Thaw in the refrigerator for 1-2 days; use within 3 weeks.

Steps:

• Fill airtight containers approximately half full with heavy cream. Securely cover containers and shake until thickened.

Steps:

• Peel and slice the peaches. Note: Most directions tell you to scald the peaches first and the skins will "slip off" but that has never been my experience. I find it's just as easy, and a lot less work, to peel the peaches with a paring knife and forgo the scalding.
• Add peaches to a large Dutch oven or other pot and cook over medium-low heat until soft. Add tiny amounts of water to keep peaches from sticking and burning to the pan if necessary.
• Puree cooked peaches using a blender or food processor. You should have about 8 cups of puree. Return puree to pot and add 4 cups of sugar.
• Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often to prevent scorching.
• As the butter thickens it will become a deep, rich, orange-yellow color. This process takes anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour or more.
• Cook until the butter is thick enough to round up on a spoon, or as thick as you prefer.
• Ladle into hot, clean ½ pint jars leaving about ¼ inch head space. Top with the two-piece lids and rings, and process in a water bath for 15 minutes.
• Remove from water bath and allow to cool for 12 hours before moving.
• Makes 6-8½ pint jars.

Steps:

• Put peaches in pot with water.
• Cook peaches over medium, simmer until peaches are soft, about 15- 20 minutes depending up on the ripeness of your fruit.
• Run the peaches through a food mill till all that is left in the mill are the peach skins which you can discard now.
• You should have about 2 quarts of peach pulp.
• Mix pulp with sugar and cinnamon.
• Cook over medium heat until thick enough to round up on a spoon about 30 minutes to an hour (this may also be done in a slow- 250 degree oven but it takes longer).
• You will need to stir frequently, making sure that it doesn't stick.
• Place in hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4" headspace.
• Adjust lid and rings on jars.

• Once cool, the peach butter may be stored in the refrigerator in containers with tight fitting lids; it will keep for several weeks.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with margarine.
