Homemade preserves that keep the peach slices whole. Their soft texture and sweet aroma bring a taste of summer to breakfast, ice cream, and desserts.
Peel and slice the peaches, then toss them with the sugar. Cover and refrigerate for one night, until the fruit releases its juices and the sugar dissolves.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then increase the heat and cook, skimming off the foam. Caution: Gently swirl the pot from time to time rather than stirring roughly, so the slices stay intact.
When the syrup thickens and the slices glisten, add the lemon juice and boil for 5 more minutes. Important: The preserves are ready when a drop on a plate leaves a trail.
Spoon the boiling preserves into sterilized jars and seal them. Turn the jars upside down to cool, then store in a cool, dark place.
Important: Choose peaches that are slightly firm rather than fully ripe, and cook them carefully so they do not fall apart. This recipe contains no flour, milk, or eggs; it is plant-based and gluten-free. Spoon the boiling preserves into sterilized jars, seal, and store in a cool place.
