A BIG thank you to frugal friend Katie for sharing this delicious recipe!
Katie writes: “We are fortunate to have a farmer’s market right at the bottom of our hill, and a nearby apple orchard, pumpkin patch, and peach orchard.
Since I haven’t grown a garden recently, I try to take advantage of these great local businesses and can some goodies for the upcoming winter.
First of all, when my mom dropped off a bushel of peaches one evening, I froze several bags.
Also I canned about 19 jars.
Finally, I made some peach butter. It is so delicious and can be made right in your Crock Pot!
So that’s my kind of cooking! 🙂
Bradley and I have been enjoying some on peanut butter sandwiches this week.”

So are you wondering how peach butter differs from your traditional peach jam or preserves? It’s simple!
Basically, peach butter is a little different because it doesn’t require any pectin.
It’s also smoother and a little less sweet than peach preserves, so you’ll end up with a stronger peach flavor.

Peach Butter Recipe
Ingredients
- 15 Ripe Peaches, (I like Freestone)
- 2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon Cloves
- 1/8 teaspoon Allspice
- 4 tsp. Lemon Juice
- 1.5 cups Granulated Sugar
Instructions
- Gather your ingredients.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil, and place peaches in the water for 1 minute. This works better if you’re using ripe peaches that are ready to eat.
- Using a slotted spoon, place the peaches into a bowl of ice water for 2 minutes. Then, slide the skins right off! I do this with tomatoes as well. Or you can use a regular peeler and skip the boiling/ice method. Whatever strikes your fancy. 🙂
- Cut the peaches into slices, and place in blender. Blend until smooth.
- Place the pureed peaches and Lemon Juice into your Crock Pot, stir, and then top with cinnamon, cloves, allspice, and sugar.
- Cook on LOW until it reaches the thickness you want. 5 - 7 hours is typically good, although it may take longer. After 5 hours, to speed up the thickening process you can pop the lid of the crock pot off just a crack to allow a little steam to escape.
- I used half-pint jars, and left about 1/4 – 1/2 an inch at the top. Then I wiped the top edge of the jars to make sure it was nice and clean. I want those lids to seal well!
- I keep the lids in hot water until I’m ready to use them. So once the jars are filled with peach butter, I put the hot lids on them and place them in a hot water bath. I make sure the jars are covered by an inch or two of boiling water, and and let them cook for 15 minutes.
- Next, you’ll lift the jars out of the boiling water, preferably with a nifty jar lifter, and let them cool overnight so the jars aren’t touching. You can make sure they sealed correctly by pressing your fingers on the lid. If it doesn’t pop up and down, you’re golden!
- Now, if you’re giving your jars away as gifts, you can place a sticker on the front, or loosen the lid and put some pretty fabric underneath. If you’re keeping them for yourself, get ready to bake some homemade biscuits and eat up! Or if you’re like my son, you’ll eat right out of the jar with a spoon. 🙂 Enjoy!

How long do these keep after they are made and do they need to be refrigerated? (I’m new to canning!)
Thank you 🙂
Hi Malinda ~ if you want to consume it right away after making it, you can store covered in the refrigerator and use within 7 days. Or if you’ll be completing the entire hot water bath canning process, they will be shelf stable and can be stored in the pantry. Hope that helps!
This Crockpot Peach Butter sounds so amazing! I love peaches and I really appreciate how it only takes 6 ingredients to make! This is a perfect summer spread.
Thanks, Christie… it really is SO easy to make, and you’re right – definitely a Summer must-have! 🙂
Thanks for sharing! Do they keep long?

What size peaches or approximately what weight? We have two peach trees and I would say they’re usually about a medium size, but this year the peaches were quite small. I also don’t know what kind they are since they were already here when we bought the house. Thanks for your help.
I would love to be included..thank you for info!
Excited to find you!
Aww… thank you!
Can you use frozen peaches? How many cups of peaches would this be?
Hello. Approximately 7 1/2 cups pureed peaches woukd equal 15 whole peaches.
Made the peach butter in crock pot and its very tasty.. However the consistency is runny and I would like to know how to thicken it a little more. I cooked it for over 8hours. What is the shelf life of these jars?
I put the heat setting at high for around 4 hours, It will depend on how many peaches you use and desired thickness as to how long.
I used 2 wooden spoons to lay across the top of the crockpot, and set the lid on them, that will help to thicken the peaches. When your happy with the consistency just follow the canning instructions above.
Don’t know the “correct” shelf life of these, to me, there isn’t any. listen for the POP sound when opening, If they the smell good and taste good, then eat. I’ve opened some dated as 3 years old. 🙂
my niece wants to make peach butter using her home canned peaches, is there any recipes for doing this? I always use fresh peaches and cannot find any recipe for doing this but im sure you can do it…
Sure can! I just did! I don’t use a recipe per say,
Drain peaches, add to crockpot, I used a potato masher to crush to desired “chunkiness”, I added sugar to taste. I don’t care for the other spices, so I didn’t add them. I put the heat setting at high for around 4 hours, It will depend on how many peaches you use and desired thickness as to how long. I used 2 wooden spoons to lay across the top of the crockpot, and set the lid on them, that will help to thicken the peaches.

Can I use white peaches for this recipe? Would you suggest I add lemon to increase the acidity?
Yes, you can. You may need to adjust the sugar amount to your taste. And the lemon juice…. You don’t need to, The lemon juice just keeps the peaches from browning, it’s a personal preference.
Have you ever made blueberry butter? I found some years ago when we were driving home from Florida but have not found it anywhere else or a recipe for it.
I honestly haven’t, but that sounds SO delicious!
