Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by washing the blueberries thoroughly and removing any stems. In a large mixing bowl, combine the blueberries with brown sugar, honey, lemon zest and juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir until well combined.
- Pour the blueberry mixture into a slow cooker. Spread it evenly, cover, and set it to cook on high for 1 hour.
- After 1 hour, uncover and let it cool slightly. Blend the mixture until smooth with an immersion blender or in a regular blender, then return to the slow cooker.
- Prop the lid of the slow cooker slightly ajar to allow steam to escape. Set to low and cook for an additional 4 to 5 hours.
- Once thickened, jar the blueberry butter using clean glass jars, leaving space at the top, and seal tightly.
- Let the jars cool to room temperature before refrigerating. The blueberry butter can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 months.

Notes
Ensure the lid is slightly ajar to allow moisture to escape, and cool the mixture before blending to prevent splatters. Use clean jars for storage, and label with date.
