Homemade Fig Jam
This easy 3-ingredient Fig Jam is thick, spreadable, and packed with sweet figgy flavor, but made without pectin, added sugar, and high-fructose corn syrup! You'd never know this super simple recipe is fat free, refined sugar free, vegan, and paleo-friendly too. Perfect on anything, from toast to muffins to crackers to a cheese plate, and so much more!
Ingredients
- 3 cups Dried Figs (3 cups = 15oz)
- 1 tbs Truvia Spoonable
- juice of 1 Orange
- 1 cup Water
Instructions
- In a small saucepan (use a wide and shallow one, not a tall and narrow one), add the dried figs, Truvia, orange juice, and water. Let soak for 1 hour.
- Cover with a lid and place the saucepan over medium heat. Keeping cover on, cook for ~20 minutes, or until the figs are super soft and can be easily mushed with a fork. Let cool completely.
- Blend in a high speed blender (I used my Vitamix) until a spreadable paste. Store in a tightly sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
