Background
This spiced fig jam is ideal for the cold months. You can use it for breakfast with croissant and toast, or for cookies, pancakes, waffles, muffins and so on. I used honey for the recipe - for a vegan version you can use date syrup (youβll need probably less).
Ingredients
- 2 cups chopped figs
- 3 TbspΒ honey
- Β½Β cupΒ water
- Β½Β lemon juiced
- 1 tspΒ ground cinnamon
- 1 tspΒ vanilla extract
- ΒΌ tspΒ ground cloves
- Β½Β tsp ground ginger
- Β½ tsp mixed spice
Instructions
- Put everything a heavy-based pot and bring to the boil.
- Reduce the heat and cook for about 45 minutes until the figs are soft and the texture is thick, sticky and jam-like. Keep stirring during cooking and add more water if it gets too sticky.
- Turn off the heat and,using a stick-blender, purΓ©e the jam until you itβs smooth or remains a bit coarse, depending on your liking.
- Let it cool, then transfer it to a sterilised container and keep refrigerated.
