I use the peaches for smoothies. I thought this worked well for freezing my peaches and just went to the farmers market to get more. I tried one bag earlier this week and thought the color, flavor and texture was great. (By the way, seconds work great for this process. I bought a big basket for just $2.00 and saved a ton of money. I am going to reduce the amount of sugar for my next batch since this creates a little more syrup than I need. That's why I gave 4 instead of 5 stars.

I don't plan to use the peaches for pie so that's not an issue for me but they seem to me to be about the same consistency as any other frozen peaches and I don't know why you couldn't use them.

As far as the chewables, I found unflavored vitamin C tablets for adults and used those. My peaches held their color and did not seem to have an odd color as mentioned in another post.

Thanks for the process, Alton. I'm so happy I can freeze the peaches.

Can you substitute citric acid for the children's vitamin c? What would the amounts be?

I froze a couple of pounds of peaches per Alton Brown's recipe. How do I use them in a recipe such as pie or cobbler? How do I adjust the sugar since there is 1/4 # sugar in the peaches.

When making the syrup to help freeze the peaches, is it possible to substitute the sugar for honey, or is that needed to keep the peaches from getting soggy when they thaw?

Hey, Alton, I have a quick question about the children's vitamin C tablets, by which I am assuming you mean that I should use chewables. Any chewable vitamin C prepared for children is going to be flavored, and likely colored, orange as well, if you expect children to willingly chew it. Will this affect the flavor of my finished product? I just made a few freezer bags full of peaches and they are colored in a most vivid orange hue.
