    beans for 2 minutes; turn heat off, cover beans and let sit for 1
    hours.

    Cook at 15 lbs pressure for 25 to 30 min. Open cooker when the

    Recipe

    Title: Peach Pie Filling
    Categories: Pies, Fruits, Canning
    Yield: 1 recipe

    —————————-FOR 1 QUART FILLING—————————-
    3 1/2 c Sliced fresh peaches
    1 c Granulated sugar
    1/4 c Clear Jel ™; plus…
    1 tb Clear Jel ™
    3/4 c Cold water
    1/8 ts Cinnamon (optional)
    1/8 ts Almond extract (opt.)
    1/4 c Bottled lemon juice

    —————————-FOR 7 QUARTS FILLING—————————-
    6 qt Sliced fresh peaches
    7 c Granulated sugar
    2 c Clear Jel ™; plus…
    3 tb Clear Jel ™
    5 1/4 c Cold water
    1 ts Cinnamon (optional)
    1 ts Almond extract (opt.)
    1 3/4 c Bottled lemon juice

    Quality: Select ripe, but firm fresh peaches. Red Haven, Redskin, Sun
    High, and other varieties of similar quality are suitable.

    Yield: 1 quart or 7 quarts.

    Procedure: Peel peaches. To loosen skins, submerge peaches in boiling
    water for approximately 30-60 seconds, and then place in cold water for
    20 seconds. Slip off skins and prepare slices 1/2-inch thick. Place
    slices in water containing 1/2 tsp. of ascorbic acid crystals or six
    500-milligram vitamin C tablets in 1 gallon of water to prevent
    browning. For fresh fruit, place 6 cups at a time in 1 gallon boiling
    water. Boil each batch 1 minute after the water returns to a boil. Drain
    but keep heated fruit in a covered bowl or pot. Combine water, sugar,
    Clear Jel ™, and, if desired, cinnamon and/or almond extract in a
    large kettle. Stir and cook over medium high heat until mixture thickens
    and begins to bubble. Add lemon juice and boil sauce 1 minute more,
    stirring constantly. Fold in drained peach slices and continue to heat
    mixture for 3 minutes. Fill jars without delay, leaving 1 inch
    head-space. Adjust lids and process immediately.
