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.

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.
