Instructions

  1. Dump blueberries into the slow cooker and set cooker on high for 90 minutes.

  2. Take off lid and cook for another 30 minutes on low.

  3. Hand blender to puree the blueberries right in the slow cooker. Or transfer blueberries to regular blender and blend then pour back in the slow cooker.
