Ingredients:

  • 1 kg fresh figs, washed and stems removed
  • 500g granulated sugar
  • Juice of 1 lemon

Instructions:

  1. Chop the figs into small pieces and place them in a large saucepan. Add the sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Stir well to combine.

  4. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, if desired.
  5. Let the jam cool for a few minutes, then transfer it to clean, sterilized jars. Seal tightly and allow the jam to cool completely before refrigerating.
