INSTRUCTIONS
In a large saucepan, bring the peaches and water to a boil over a medium
heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring often, until peaches are
very tender. In a food processor fitted with the metal blade or a blender,
process the fruit mixture in batches until smooth. Return the puree to the
saucepan and stir in the sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, cinnamon, and
cloves. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce the
heat to low and simmer, stirring often, until thickened and reduced to
about 6 cups, about 30 minutes. Ladle the peach butter into hot, sterilized
jars, leaving 1/4 inch of headroom. Wipe the rims clean and put the lids on
the jars. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Remove the jars
from the water and cool completely at room temperature. Makes about 3
pints. Source: "An Edible Christmas" (A Treasury of Recipes for the

“When Holy God draws near in true revival, people come under terrible conviction of sin. The outstanding feature of spiritual awakening has been the profound consciousness of the Presence and holiness of God. #Henry Blackaby”
