  3. Shape the mixture into 1.5 oz meatballs, about 42 meatballs total. Place onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced evenly.
  4. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until browned and cooked through, with a meat thermometer reading of 160°F.
  5. In the slow cooker, combine chili sauce and sugar-free jam. Stir well.
  6. Transfer the baked meatballs into the sauce in the slow cooker. Stir to coat evenly.
  7. Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 2-3 hours or low for 8 hours.
