The fresh juiciness of ripe peaches combined with the bright flavor of pineapple and subtle almondy amaretto undertones make this a perfectly peachy fruit butter. Add to overnight oats, top ice cream, or spread on biscuits. It's so delicious.
Peel the peaches and cut them into small pieces. Add them to a bowl.
4 peaches
Add the lemon juice, amaretto, nutmeg, and sugar to the skinned and cut peaches. Stir together, cover, and refrigerate for about 4 hours until most of the sugar has melted and the peaches have just begun to soften.
Add the peach mixture to a blender along with the whole can of pineapple (undrained) and the cornstarch. Blend until well pureed.
Pour the puree into a saucepan and cook on med/high heat until it comes to a boil, stirring constantly. After it comes to a boil turn the heat down to the lowest setting and continue cooking for 1 hour. Stir occasionally so that the mixture doesn't clump or stick to the bottom.
Remove from heat and put into glass jars. This should keep for at least a week in your refrigerator.
