How to Make Peach Butter With Cardamom

  1. **Prepare the Peaches:** Dip peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds, then immediately transfer to an ice bath. Peel the peaches and remove pits.
  2. **Combine Ingredients:** In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 4 cups peeled and chopped peaches, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 1 teaspoon ground cardamom, and a pinch of salt.
  3. **Stovetop Method:** Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, for 20-25 minutes, or until the peach butter has thickened to your desired consistency. Reduce heat as needed to prevent burning.
  4. **Microwave Method:** Combine all ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl. Cook on high for 10 minutes, stirring halfway through. Continue cooking in 2-minute intervals, stirring after each, until the desired thickness is reached (this may take 12-15 minutes total).
  5. **Cool and Store:** Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Transfer to a clean, airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  6. **Enjoy!** Spread your homemade peach butter on your favorite breakfast treats or enjoy it by the spoonful.
