Peach season is upon and lemme tell you sumptin' people… I LOOOOOOOOOVE fresh peaches!  I've had this recipe for a century and make fresh peach pie filling every summer.  Now you can either jar/can it when it's done OR you can use it right away.

Trust me.. when it's butt-crack cold outside (presuming you live in the a place where it gets butt-crack cold in the winter) nothing speaks 'summer' like a warm fresh peach pie.

11. Fill the jars within ¾"-1" from the top.
12. Put the filled jars in the canner and keep them covered with at least 1" of water.
13. Boil for 30 minutes.

Notes

ClearJel is not the same as SureJel – read THIS article that explains the difference and what will happen when you try to substitute one for the other.

My local stores do not carry ClearJel  so I order it off of Amazon.
