Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Add peaches, sugar, and lemon juice to a saucepan over medium-high heat.

    Stir until the sugar dissolves and the peaches begin to break down, ~2 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Simmer, stirring occasionally and breaking up larger chunks with the back of a spoon, until thick and jammy, 5–7 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Remove from heat and let cool slightly before transferring to a jar or serving bowl.
