Instructions

Combine peaches, sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a large saucepan.
Bring the mixture to a rapid boil and continue boiling for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Use a wooden spoon to help break down the peaches until the mixture thickens and clings to the back of a spoon.
Transfer the preserves to a large glass jar or several smaller jars, seal, and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.

Notes

For optimal flavor, use ripe peaches.
Make sure to stir the mixture frequently to prevent burning.
Preserves can be canned for longer storage if processed properly.
