Description

Ingredients

• 2 lbs. black mission or brown turkey figs, stemmed and quartered
• 1 cup of granulated sugar
• ½ cup honey (or sub with the same amount of sugar)
• Juice of 1½ lemons
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions

• Place the figs, sugar, honey, and lemon juice in a large sauce pan and heat over medium-high heat, stirring to combine as the sugar melts. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook until thickened, about 50-60 minutes. Be sure to stir the pan often to prevent sticking and/or burning, especially as the mixture thickens. Remove from heat, stir in the vanilla, and cool completely.
• Store the jam in jars or other air tight containers in the refrigerator. The jam would be great for canning as well, just follow canning instructions if desired. Enjoy!
