The only thing she did differently was use a potato masher to make smaller pieces of fruit, after they had cooked to a soft consistency. For anyone that is hesitant to use this recipe, I can attest that it is wonderful.Judynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8390396285139687239.post-12165253063592226902010-06-02T08:54:33.241-05:002010-06-02T08:54:33.241-05:00M, If you process the jars and can them correctly the preserves have a shelf life of one year. I would wrap them in bubble wrap and package them well with some packing peanuts or newspaper.Mommy's Kitchenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10515629994766421233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8390396285139687239.post-64085047122042716242010-06-02T08:18:34.784-05:002010-06-02T08:18:34.784-05:00Hi!

The taste is more fresh. To make it spiced add 1 cinnamon stick to the mixture.

I havent burned any yet. You might of had the heat to high. I cooked mine the 30 minutes and then added the sugar, brought it back to a boil then lowered the heat to a low simmer for 1 1/2 - 2 hours. You have to watch them and stir. My friend burned hers she wasnt watching them and had the heat to high. They would only stick and burn it your let them sit and dont stir them. I am sorry they didnt turn out for you. You can always try again. I have made this recipe more than a dozen times.Mommy's Kitchenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10515629994766421233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8390396285139687239.post-72167223950181332432009-09-07T13:46:14.765-05:002009-09-07T13:46:14.765-05:00After following the recipe closely, including stirring often, my peaches burned.catlover4251http://www.blogger.com/profile/07166276923983526112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8390396285139687239.post-66876982782811570602008-09-23T15:30:00.000-05:002008-09-23T15:30:00.000-05:00Hi <B>Lisa</B> i commented a response to your ? on your site, but i will add the reply here as well. <BR/><BR/>That particular recipe relies on the syrup used in the canned peaches as part of the sweetener as well as liquid. To make them with fresh peaches, you'd have to use a different recipe designed to be used with fresh peaches.Mommy's Kitchenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10515629994766421233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8390396285139687239.post-54353304079824138342008-09-22T23:03:00.000-05:002008-09-22T23:03:00.000-05:00I just got a box of fresh peaches and would love to try this recipe.

I want to learn how to can. I've never learned. You make it look so easy. I am so happy you make your holiday gifts. I do too. You're right, people appreciate homemade 100 times more than some store bought item. Good job neighbor.Teresa Cordero Cordellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00738980943031027746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8390396285139687239.post-86329872243801296952008-09-18T12:40:00.000-05:002008-09-18T12:40:00.000-05:00Live.Love.Eat, I think giving baked items is such a nice gift. alot of folks dont have time to bake so they appreciate the goodies. Most cookies freeze perfect. I bake them up just as the recipe calls for cool them and place in freezer zip lock bags and toss in. All baked quick breads do well to let them cool and individually wrap each one and then place them in a freezer bag and freeze. I make mini loaves so i can give everyone a bit of everything. I make vanilla popcorn now that doesnt freeze well so i do that the day before. I make rolo pretzel treats (place a rolo n a pretzel and bake on 200 for 4 minutes remove from oven and press a pecan half on top let cool) when they are all cooled i toss them in a bag as well and they freeze. I havent came across anything that doesnt freeze well. fudge does perfect. Oh another trick not sure if you make sausage cheese balls or not but my FIL loves them. I prepare the up add the raw sasage, cheese and bisquick mix up and shape into balls i place each one on a cookie sheet and freeze, remove when frozen and toss in a freezer bag. that way you can bake them fresh the day of the holiday it saves so much time. I love fresh sausage cheese balls not ones cooked them frozen yuck!!!! I hope this helps some.Mommy's Kitchenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10515629994766421233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8390396285139687239.post-27485560666416301222008-09-18T12:28:00.000-05:002008-09-18T12:28:00.000-05:00Oh wow this looks so simple but absolutely delish!

I have NEVER done this &amp; I think I&#39;m silly for that. Any tips would be appreciated. Like do you refrig them first, and then freeze, if so for how long. What are your tricks?

It was so easy to make it was unbelievable. <BR/><BR/><B>stephanie</B> The idea of giving baked items baskets as gifts for the holidays, came from just just being a little tight on money when i first stayed at home wit my daughter. That was 8 years ago, I thought to myself i cant go buy all these estravagent gifts but i can bake up alot of my goodies and place them in big baskets and decorate them up and give that as gifts. Well 8 years later the baskets have come to be expected LOL I love doing them. I add all kinds of stuff. Cookies, quick breads, canned items, homeade candy, a pretty candle and some of the kids holiday art work from school the grandparents love them. I give baskets at Thanksgiving and Christmas I start my baking a month in advance and bake all my cookies and breads so i can place them in freezer bags and store them. I make the candy and gourment popcorn the last day or two and pack them up the night before we are to arrive. Its so fun. The items in the freezer taste as if i baked them that day when they thaugh out. <BR/><BR/><B>VG</B> I will find out if fresh peachese can be used in place of the canned not sure on that one.
