Delicious Homemade Blackberry Jam – A Winter Solstice Treat

Hey Everyone,

I hope this day finds you well. I wanted to share a delightful experience from my recent YouTube video, where I made Easy Crockpot Blackberry Jam.

In the video, I explored the process of preparing 5 lbs of frozen blackberries from Azure, sharing insights on the importance of adding lemon juice for acidity. The inspiration behind this batch was a divine Blackberry Bacon Cheddar Grilled Cheese I tried at a local sandwich shop during a recent outing with John.

The highlight of the video was experimenting with a new crockpot method for making blackberry jam. I tripled the recipe, combining 3 and 1/2 cups of sugar with 3/4 a cup of lemon juice, and let it simmer for 3 hours. The result was 12 beautiful jars of jam, perfect for gifting and personal use.

I also added a creative way to enjoy the jam by adding it to zero-fat plain Greek yogurt, so it has healthier ingredients and lower sugar content (but still tastes good). I think you’ll see the satisfaction of successfully making and experimenting with crockpot jams, promising more delightful recipes in the future. It’s really nice when you make your own jam. Rewarding, at least to me.

If you’re interested in trying this out or simply want to enjoy the process, you can watch the full video here (or just click above).

Wishing you a cozy Winter Solstice filled with warmth and homemade treats!

Best regards,

Brandy
