Pressure Cooker Spiced Peaches

Pressure Cooker Spiced Peaches

Ingredients:
Peaches
1 cinnamon stick
Whole cloves
1 tablespoon minced candied ginger
3 whole black peppercorns
Pinch cayenne pepper

Directions:
1. Add all of the ingredients to the pressure cooker. Stir to mix. Lock the lid into place and bring to low pressure; maintain pressure for 3 minutes. Remove the pressure cooker from the heat, quick-release the pressure, and remove the lid. Remove and discard the cinnamon stick, cloves, and peppercorns.
2. Return to medium heat. Simmer and stir for 5 minutes to thicken the syrup. Serve warm or chilled. To store, allow to cool and then refrigerate for up to a week.

Spiced Peach Butter:
To make spiced peach butter, after Step 2 process the peaches and liquid in a blender or food processor until smooth, and return to the pressure cooker. Simmer and stir over low heat for 30 minutes or until thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.
