Steps:
- Peel peaches and pears and cut into large pieces.
- Soak in a lemon juice/water combination if desired to reduce color change (optional).
- In a large pot, combine honey and water. Bring to a boil, stirring until well combined.
- Reduce heat to a simmer.
- Drain fruit and add to syrup mixture. Continue simmering until fruit is heated through.
- Spoon fruit into clean pint jars.
- Fill each jar with the hot syrup leaving ½ inch head space.
- Remove the bubbles (I use the handle of a rubber spatula, but there is an actual tool for this process. Just don't use anything metal).
- Wipe the tops of the jars with a damp paper towel, and cover with two-piece caps. Process in a water bath for 20 minutes.
- Makes 6 pints with some syrup left over (use it for another batch or to make sorbet or to sweeten iced tea).
