Equipment

Ingredients

  • 24 oz. fresh cranberries (about 6 cups)
  • 16 oz. fresh strawberries
  • 1½ tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp. ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cloves
  • 1/4 tsp. ground ginger
  • 2 cups brown sugar
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Add everything to the slow cooker and stir.
  • Cook on HIGH for 4 hours without opening the lid during the cooking time.
  • When the cooking time is up, add the contents from the slow cooker into a blender. Pulse until a jam forms. DO NOT OVER BLEND OR YOU WILL MAKE CRANBERRY BUTTER. You can use an immersion blender if you choose.
  • The jam will thicken a lot while it cools, don't fret. Cranberries have pectin in them.
  • Let cool before storing.
