Peaches Part 2

Another fantastic and fairly simple way to preserve peaches is to freeze them. By freezing the peaches, you actually keep more of the nutrients in place. When frozen, they are great for smoothies or to use as an ice cream topping, etc. at a later date!

Simply blanch them as discussed in my previous blog (this allows the skin to peel right off). Then cut into cubes and add about 1/2 cup of sugar and 1 crushed Vitamin C capsule to them, mix and place in freezer bags. Lay flat in freezer to freeze. The Vitamin C helps to prevent them from turning brown.
