How to Make Peachy Vanilla Jam
- In a large bowl, combine 4 cups granulated sugar and the seeds scraped from 1 vanilla bean (reserve pod for later use).
- Stir well to combine.
- Let the sugar and vanilla bean mixture stand for 48 hours at room temperature, stirring occasionally.
- In a large enamel or stainless steel pot, combine 4 cups peeled and chopped fresh peaches, 1/4 cup lemon juice, and 1/4 cup liquid pectin.
- Turn heat to high. Bring the peach mixture to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly for exactly 5 minutes.
- Add the sugar and vanilla bean mixture (from step 3) to the pot.
- Return the mixture to a full rolling boil and boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Remove the vanilla bean pod from the jam.
- Ladle the hot jam into clean, sterilized half-pint jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace at the top of each jar.
- Process the filled jars in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes. Remove and let cool completely.
- **Alternative (No Vanilla Bean):** Skip steps 1-3. When adding sugar in step 6, add 4 cups granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract instead.
