Fig Jam
A delicious jam made with fresh figs, that is not overly sweet and great on toast, cake and so much more.
Servings: 1 cup
Ingredients
- 8 figs quartered (I used black mission figs)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- options
- pinch of cinnamon 1-2 teaspoon lemon juice,
Instructions
- In a small saucepan add figs, sugar, and water to a boil.
- Close to the time, it's finished cooking, add the vanilla.
- Simmer until the fruit is soft, the "jam" is thickening a bit and sticks to the back of a spoon and it not runny, I use a thermometer, cook the jam until it reaches 220°F.
- The jam will thicken as it cools.
