August is the time to glut yourself on fresh, juicy peaches. But if you’ve bought more than you can eat, take a break and try your hand at preserving them.

Ingredients

  • 6 peaches, peeled, pitted and finely chopped

  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar

  • 1/2 tsp vanilla

Instructions

  • COMBINE peaches with sugar in a medium pot and set over medium. Cook, stirring often, and reducing heat if needed, until mixture is thick and glossy, about 30 min. Stir in vanilla.

  • LET cool completely before transferring to jars. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
