How to Make Peach Lavender Jam

  1. Gently rinse 1 cup of fresh lavender flowers (organic preferred) and place them in a heatproof bowl.
  2. Pour 1 cup of boiling water over the lavender flowers. Steep for 20 minutes to extract the fragrant oils.
  3. Strain the lavender infusion through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing gently on the flowers to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the spent flowers.
  4. In a large, heavy-bottomed stainless steel or enamel saucepan, combine the lavender infusion (about ¾ cup), 4 cups peeled and sliced ripe peaches (about 1.5 lbs), ½ cup lemon juice (about 2-3 lemons), and 4 cups granulated sugar (adjust to your sweetness preference).
  5. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Boil hard for 1 minute, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface.
  6. Reduce heat to medium-high and stir in 1 pouch (1.75 oz) liquid pectin. Boil for another minute, stirring constantly to prevent scorching.
  7. Remove from heat and carefully skim off any remaining foam.
  8. Ladle the hot jam into sterilized half-pint jars, leaving ¼-inch headspace. Wipe the rims clean, and place lids and rings on jars.
  9. Process in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes (adjust processing time according to your altitude – consult a canning guide for specifics).
  10. Remove jars from the canner and let them cool completely. You should hear a ‘pop’ sound as the jars seal. Check to ensure all jars have sealed properly.
