2. Blend Peaches: Place half of the chopped peaches into the container of an electric blender. Process them until they are coarsely chopped. Repeat this process with the remaining peaches.

3. Transfer to Kettle: Pour the blended peaches into a flat-bottomed kettle or heavy-bottomed pot.

4. Add Sugar: Stir in the sugar until it is well combined with the peaches.

5. Cook: Place the kettle over medium-low heat. Cook the peach mixture, stirring frequently, for about 30 minutes or until the mixture thickens to your desired consistency.

6. Sterilize Jars: While the peach butter is cooking, prepare your jars for canning. Wash them in hot, soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Place the jars in a large pot of boiling water to sterilize them.

7. Ladle into Jars: Once the peach butter has thickened, quickly ladle it into the hot, sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of headspace at the top of each jar.

8. Seal Jars: Cover the jars with metal lids and screw the bands on tightly.

9. Process Jars: Place the filled jars in a boiling water bath. Ensure that the jars are fully submerged in the water. Process them for 5 minutes to seal the jars properly.

10. Cool and Store: Carefully remove the jars from the water bath using canning tongs and place them on a clean towel to cool completely. Once cooled, check that the lids are sealed by pressing down on the center of each lid. Store the sealed jars in a cool, dark place.

11. Enjoy: Your Old-Fashioned Peach Butter is now ready to be enjoyed! Spread it on biscuits, toast, or use it as a topping for your favorite desserts. Enjoy the taste of summer all year round!

This delightful peach butter makes a thoughtful homemade gift or a delicious addition to your pantry. Enjoy the sweet flavors of ripe peaches in every spoonful! 🌟🍑
