Check as many quart- or gallon-sized jars as needed to hold the peaches for cracks and the rings for rust, and discard any that are defective. Submerge them in simmering water for at least 5 minutes. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm, soapy water.

In a very large pot over medium-high heat, bring the sugar, water, and vinegar to a boil; continue boiling until the syrup is moderately thick. Add the peaches, cinnamon, and cloves; keep boiling, stirring occasionally, until the peaches can be easily pierced to the pit with a fork, 20 to 30 minutes more.

Fill the sterilized canning jars with peaches. Keep boiling the syrup until it is heavy; ladle it into the jars to cover the peaches, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Slide a clean knife or thin spatula around the inside of each jar to release any air bubbles. Wipe the rims with a damp paper towel to remove any residue. Place the lids on and tighten the screw rings.

Set a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill it halfway with water. Bring the water to a boil and lower the jars, spaced 2 inches apart, into the boiling water using a holder. Add more boiling water to cover the jars by 2 inches. Return to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 35 minutes.

Lift the jars out of the stockpot and let them rest, spaced several inches apart on a wood or cloth-covered surface, for 12 to 24 hours. Press the center of each lid with a finger to confirm it does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool, dark place.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
