plum butter recipe www.daringgourmet.com/plum-butter-pflaumenmus/

in the slowcooker plums, sugar and spices are cooked,

no added water, cooked in its own juices,

then blended using handblender in the crockpot,

blended mixture is reduced until the consistency is as thick and smooth as butter,

needs many hours in the slowcooker on low,

flavour rich and spicy, a thicker, richer version of plum jam

to eat with any dish, sweet or savoury, even spread on buttered toast/crumpet
