Yield: 1
Prep time: PT15M
Cook time: PT25M
Total time: PT40M

Ingredients
- 3 medium fresh peaches, peeled and chopped
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar (65 g)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (15 ml)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 2 tablespoons water (30 ml)

Instructions
1. Prep the Peaches (10 minutes): Blanch peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds, transfer to ice bath, peel skins off, and chop into 1/2-inch pieces.
2. Combine Ingredients (5 minutes): In a medium saucepan, mix chopped peaches, sugar, lemon juice, cardamom, and water. Stir gently to combine.
3. Cook the Jam (20-25 minutes): Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to simmer and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally until thickened and fruit breaks down. Add water if sticking.
4. Add Vanilla (2 minutes): Remove from heat when jam coats the back of a spoon and stir in vanilla extract.
5. Test the Jam Set: Place a spoonful on a chilled plate and tilt; if it wrinkles and holds shape, jam is ready. If not, simmer longer and test again.
6. Cool and Store: Let jam cool slightly, transfer to clean jars, seal, and refrigerate up to two weeks or freeze for longer storage.
