Print Recipe

A quick and easy no-cook peach freezer jam made with just fresh peaches, sugar, and powdered fruit pectin. Perfect for capturing the fresh flavor of summer peaches without any stove time.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups peeled, pitted, and mashed fresh peaches (about 6–8 medium peaches)
  • 4 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 package (1.75 oz / 49 g) no-cook powdered fruit pectin (such as Sure-Jell)

Instructions

  1. Wash peaches thoroughly. Peel by blanching in boiling water for 30 seconds, then plunge into ice water to slip off skins easily. Pit and roughly chop peaches to yield about 4 cups.
  2. Place chopped peaches into a large mixing bowl. Mash with a potato masher or fork to desired texture (chunky or smooth), about 3-5 minutes.
  3. In a separate small bowl, combine sugar and powdered fruit pectin. Stir to blend evenly.
  4. Sprinkle sugar-pectin mixture over mashed peaches. Stir gently but thoroughly for about 3 minutes until sugar dissolves and pectin is evenly distributed.
  5. Let jam sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to allow pectin to activate and thicken the jam.
  6. Spoon jam into clean, freezer-safe containers or jars, leaving about 1/2 inch space at the top for expansion. Seal tightly.
  7. Freeze jam for up to 12 months. Thaw in refrigerator overnight or at room temperature for a few hours before use.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches for best texture and flavor. Do not substitute powdered pectin with liquid pectin. Let jam sit at room temperature after mixing to activate pectin. If jam is too runny after thawing, stir and chill in refrigerator to firm up. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained well to avoid runniness.
