Instructions

Cube the peaches. If frozen, thaw them first. If fresh, peel the peaches before cubing.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Mix well.
Cook until the peach juice separates and the mixture comes to a simmer.
Continue cooking for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the mixture thickens. Use a potato masher to lightly mash about 20% of the peaches. Cook for an additional minute and then remove from heat. Cool completely before using.

Notes

For a thicker filling, adjust the cornstarch based on your preference.
This filling can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Use this filling for pies, tarts, or as a topping for ice cream.
