Ingredients
Before you start the freezing process, gather the following ingredients:
- Fresh, ripe peaches (the star of the show!)
- Lemon juice (to prevent browning)
- Sugar or honey (optional, for sweetening)
- Water (for blanching)
Instructions
- Wash the peaches under cool running water.
- Blanch the peaches in boiling water for 30-60 seconds.
- Transfer the blanched peaches to an ice bath to cool.
- Peel, slice, and remove the pits from the peaches.
- Sprinkle lemon juice over the slices to prevent browning.
- Freeze the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet for about 2 hours.
- Store the frozen slices in freezer bags or airtight containers, labeling with the date.
Notes
- Choose ripe peaches for the best flavor.
- Blanching helps in easy peeling and preserves quality.
