• 1 cup of sugar
• 1 tbsp cinnamon

METHOD :

1. Slice your figs and out into a medium sized saucepan, along with all the other ingredients.
2. Heat on high until the sugar is dissolved, then turn the heat onto low for about an hour, and while simmering keep stirring.
3. Once the texture becomes a thick stocky dark mixture, take off the heat.
4. Then using a potato masher or a hand mixer, blend/press together everything in the saucepan until smooth. Pour into your jam jar and keep in the fridge until ready to be eaten!
