wax paper (1 of 1)

Then wrap your meat loaf in the wax paper to place it in foil… you can just skip the wax paper and use foil. If you are going to cook this now… line your crockpot with the foil and build your boat in the crockpot and add the jam in there. I am going to freeze this so I wrap it in foil and then I place it in a freezer bag. I had to use two because of the size but that is fine. When you are ready thaw this and place it in your slow cooker for 6-8 hours.

You can glaze it with the Apricot Jelly 15 minutes prior to serving just paint it on while cooking… enjoy!

Then a attach the sides to the top. I always reserve a little of the jam to glaze the loaf 15 minutes prior to serving!
