Slow Cooker Blueberry Butter
- 8 cups pureed blueberries
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 lemon, zest
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 12 teaspoon grated nutmeg
- Put the pureed blueberries in a slow cooker.
- Place a lid on the pot and turn it on to low.
- After about an hour, give it a stir.
- At this point, you want to use something to prop the lid a bit.
- I found that laying a wooden spoon across the rim of the cooker and then placing the lid on gave it just enough room to let the steam evaporate.
- Cook blueberry butter about 6 hours in the slow cooker.
- At the beginning of hour five, add the spices and the sugar, removed the lid completely and turned the heat up to high, in order to speed the cooking down.
- Once its cooked down sufficiently, pour into jars leaving a 1/4 inch of head space.
- Process jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
- Adjust time according to your altitude.
