Homemade Peach Jam

1. Ingredients:
   • 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and chopped
   • 2 cups granulated sugar
   • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
   • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

   Directions:

   1. In a large saucepan, combine peaches, sugar, and lemon juice. Mix well.
   2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently.
   3. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the jam has thickened, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
   4. If using, stir in the cinnamon during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
   5. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Transfer the jam to sterilized jars and seal. Store in the refrigerator or process for longer shelf life.
