Cómo preparar Baked Peach Butter

Place 6 cups sliced ripe peaches and 1/2 cup water in a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until peaches are completely softened (about 20-25 minutes).
Reduce heat to low and stir in 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1/2 cup honey. Taste and adjust honey to your preferred sweetness.
Carefully puree the peach mixture using a food mill, immersion blender, or regular blender until completely smooth. (Note: If using a regular blender, work in batches to avoid overheating.)
Pour the smooth peach mixture into two shallow 9x13 inch baking pans or roasting pans.
Bake uncovered in a preheated oven at 325°F (160°C) for 1 hour. Stir gently every 15-20 minutes to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Continue baking for another 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until the peach butter has thickened considerably and reaches a rich, reddish-amber color. The butter should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
(Optional: For canning) Carefully pour the hot peach butter into sterilized half-pint jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
(Optional: For freezing) Allow the peach butter to cool completely before transferring it to airtight freezer-safe containers. Freeze for up to 3 months.
To serve from frozen, thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
