Step 1

Prepare mason jars and lids by washing and sterilizing in boiling water or running through the sterilization cycle on the dishwasher.

Step 2

Prepare the strawberries and raspberries. Rinse with cool water. Slice strawberries into halves or quarters and then crush them with a potato masher. Crockpot jam cooks best the smaller the pieces are broken down beforehand.

Step 3

Add sugar, pectin, strawberries and raspberries to the crockpot.

Step 4

Set the crockpot on high and cook for 2-3 hours, stirring every 30 minutes.

Step 5

When the sugar is completely dissolved throughout the entire mixture, the jam is done. ● Ladle jam into prepared jars, secure lids, and leave the jars to set for 24 hours before storing in the freezer.

Step 6

If, instead of storing in the freezer, you’d like to process the jars in a boiling water bath, they can be stored on the shelf for up to 1 year.
