directions

  • Wash oranges and slice very thinly, discarding seeds.
  • Cut slices into quarters.
  • Or, if you want to use your food processor, grind the oranges using the steel blade.
  • Place oranges in a large heavy saucepan with the water and simmer, covered, over low heat until clear and soft-- about 30 minutes.
  • Add lemon rind, lemon juice, peaches and sugar.
  • Drain the cherry juice from the bottle and add to pot.
  • Stir well.
  • Cut cherries in half and set aside.
  • Over high heat, bring peach mixture to a boil.
  • Reduce heat and cook, uncovered, at a brisk simmer until the mixture thickens and the peaches turn translucent.
  • Expect this to take about 1 hour.
  • Stir frequently.
  • During the last 5 minutes of cooking, add the cherries and almonds.
  • Remove from heat and skim off foam.
  • Bottle in hot sterilized mason jars and seal with prepared lids.
