  • “We (7 of us) fell in love with this.After canning my first batch, I had some left that wouldn’t fill a jar.I heated a cast iron skillet added 1/2 stick of butter and 1/2 cup brown sugar, poured the excess on top of this and topped it with a butter cake mix.Baked it until golden brown and let it cool for 10 minutes.When I turned it out of the pan onto a plate, we could hardly wait to taste it.To say the least, we were not disappointed!”

  • “Great recipe! I didn’t have quite enough peaches (and nectarines) so I filled in the remainder with apples. I also used ground spices instead of whole. I ended up with a darker final product but the house smelled amazing. After printing this off of Zaar, I checked my canning book and found this in there!”
