Ingredients

2 cups cranberries

2 cups strawberries

1 cup orange juice

4 cups sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

¼ tsp cloves

½ cup water

1 box pectin

Directions

In your crockpot, combine cranberries, strawberries, orange juice, sugar, cinnamon, and cloves, stirring to blend thoroughly.

Cover the crockpot and cook on high for about three to four hours, allowing the fruits to soften and the mixture to thicken.

After cooking, use an immersion blender to puree the fruit mixture until smooth, ensuring no large pieces remain.

Add water and pectin to the pureed mixture, stirring well to fully incorporate the ingredients together.

Set the crockpot on high again, letting the mixture reach a gentle simmer while stirring occasionally.

Once the jam has thickened to your desired consistency, turn off the crockpot and allow the jam to cool.

Carefully pour the cooled jam into sterilized jars, sealing them tightly for storage.

Store the jars in a cool, dark place or refrigerate for up to three weeks after opening.
