How to Make Cinnamon Peach Jam Water Bath

  1. Combine 4 cups prepared peaches (peeled, pitted, and chopped) and 1/4 cup lemon juice in a 6- or 8-quart saucepan.
  2. Gradually stir in 1 pouch (1 3/4 oz) powdered fruit pectin.
  3. Add 1/2 teaspoon butter (optional) to reduce foaming.
  4. Bring mixture to a full rolling boil that cannot be stirred down, over high heat, stirring constantly. This should take about 1 minute.
  5. Add 7 cups of sugar all at once, stirring constantly until completely dissolved.
  6. Return mixture to a full rolling boil.
  7. Boil hard for exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  8. Remove from heat.
  9. Skim off any foam.
  10. Stir in 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  11. Ladle hot jam into sterilized canning jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
  12. Clean the rims and threads of the jars with a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue.
  13. Process jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust time based on your altitude).
  14. After processing, turn off the heat and let the jars sit in the canner for 5 minutes.
  15. Carefully remove jars from the canner and place them upright on a towel to cool completely, undisturbed, for 12-24 hours.
  16. Do not retighten the bands during cooling; this may prevent proper sealing.
  17. After cooling, check the seals by pressing the center of each lid. If the lid does not flex, it's sealed! If a lid is not sealed within 24 hours, refrigerate immediately and use within 3 weeks or reprocess using a new lid.
