Slow Cooker Angostura-Peach Jam - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 lbs peaches, peeled and finely chopped
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 (2 ounce) boxes dry pectin (or 1.75 oz boxes for a total of about 4 oz)
6 cups sugar
1 dash cinnamon
1 dash ground cloves
20 drops Angostura bitters

Preparation

Mix chopped peaches and lemon juice in the slow cooker.
Sprinkle with pectin and let rest for about 20 minutes.
Mix in sugar, cinnamon, and cloves.
Set slow-cooker to cook for about 2 1/2 hours on low; stir twice during the cooking.
Remove slow-cooker lid and cook an additional 2-3 hours over high heat (until it reaches desired consistency.) Add Angostura bitters toward the end of the cooking.
Pack into sterilized jars and process in a water-bath canner for 10 minutes (or more, depending on altitude.).
