  2. Cook the Jam: Cover the crockpot and set to cook on high for 4 hours, stirring halfway through to prevent sticking.
  3. Blend for Consistency: After 4 hours, pulse the jam with an immersion blender for a thick, spreadable consistency.
  4. Jar the Jam: Fill clean jars with warm jam, wipe the rims, and secure the lids lightly.
  5. Cool and Refrigerate: Let jars cool at room temperature for about an hour, then transfer to the refrigerator.
