Slow Cooker Angostura Peach Jam Recipes

BLUSHING PEACH JAM

Steps:

• Prepare 1/2 pint jars, lids, and water bath.
• Combine peaches, raspberries, lemon juice, and sugar in a large pot. Stir to combine. Bring slowly to a boil, stirring until sugar dissolves.
• Stir in liquid pectin. Return to a rolling boil. Boil hard 1 minute, stirring contantly. Remove from heat. Skim foam if necessary.
• Ladle hot jam into prepared jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Cap, and process 10 minutes in boiling water bath.

OLD-FASHIONED SAGE STUFFING

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the butter until melted over medium-high heat; Add the onions, celery, and apple and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Put the bread and stuffing mix in a large bowl; Add the parsley, dried herbs, salt, and pepper and toss to combine.
• Pour the sauteed vegetables over the bread cubes and mix together; Add the egg and enough of the broth, stirring, until the ingredients are evenly moistened. Taste to adjust the seasonings.
• Coat the slow cooker with butter, olive oil, or nonstick cooking spray.
• Pack the stuffing lightly into the cooker which allows for expansion as it heats up.
• Dot with butter pieces and sprinkle with a few more tablespoons of chicken broth.
• Cover and cook on HIGH for 1 hour.
• Reduce the heat to LOW and cook until puffy and nicely brown around the edges, 4-5 hours.
• NOTE: The dressing can sit in the coooker, covered, on KEEP WARM for 2-3 hours before serving.
• Serve hot right out of the crock if you wish.
• FACTS: A 1-lb. loaf of bread will yield about 6 cups of cubed bread, 1 1/2-lb.=10 cups, 2-lb.=12 cups.
• White bread will give a lighter textured stuffing than whole wheat or whole grain.
• You will serve about 1/2 to 1 cup of stuffing per person.
