Homemade condensed milk in a slow cooker

Baby food "Malutka" - 1 multi-cup (180g)
Sugar – 0.5 liters;
Milk – 0.5 liters;

Method of preparation:

Mix sugar and baby food in a multi-bowl;
Pour in milk while stirring;
Set the “simmer” mode for 2-3 hours;
Once it boils, stir and continue cooking with the lid closed;
The prepared mixture will be liquid; to thicken it, turn on the "bake" mode for 20 minutes. Cook with the lid closed;

If you don't have baby food, you can vary the recipes and use powdered milk. You can add as much of the mixture as you like to taste. It's best to use homemade boiled milk. The condensed milk won't be the same color as store-bought; it will be beige-brown, which is normal. Desserts with homemade condensed milk will be the highlight of any holiday. These recipes allow for improvisation.

Jams, preserves, and syrups are prepared using the same principle.

Fruit and sugar – an eternal classic!

Desserts are everything served after the main course. In Europe, the tradition of serving desserts emerged in the 19th century. The rise of sugar production allowed those with less income to diversify their dessert recipes and indulge in sweets. And what could be simpler than cooking fruit with sugar?

Let cool; rub the plums through a sieve and return them to the bowl;
Set the temperature to 120 degrees and cook for another 35 minutes;

Plum desserts can be varied with various toppings. If you're planning to eat the jam as part of a meal, consider adding grated dark chocolate; however, if you're preserving it, skip the addition.

Pie and cake recipes

The earliest known pie is considered to be the wedding cake. In ancient Rome, a flatbread made with wine was broken over the bride's head. This symbolized prosperity and good fortune.
