Mash 1 cup of the chopped peaches in the bottom of a large saucepan. Add the remaining peaches and place the pan over medium-low heat.
- 3
Bring to a gentle boil and cook until the peaches turn mostly liquid with a few small pieces remaining, about 20 minutes.
- 4
Transfer the cooked peaches to a bowl, then measure 6 cups of peaches back into the pan (save any extra peaches for another use). Add the sugar and bring to a boil over medium heat.

Slowly stir in the dry pectin; boil for 1 minute.

Take off the heat and ladle the jam into hot, sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch of headspace. Slide a clean knife or thin spatula around the inside of the jars to release air bubbles. Wipe the rims with a damp paper towel to remove any residue.
- 7
Set a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill it halfway with water. Bring 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 at least 1 inch. Return to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.

Carefully lift the jars out of the stockpot and let the jam cool, then store on a shelf in a cool, dark place. Serve and enjoy!

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.
