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 (you’ll need probably less).

Ingredients

2 cups chopped figs
3 Tbsp honey
½ cup water
½ lemon juiced
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp ground cloves
½ tsp ground ginger
½ 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, purée the jam until you it’s smooth or remains a bit coarse, depending on your liking.
Let it cool, then transfer it to a sterilised container and keep refrigerated.
