Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large saucepan, combine your ripe fresh figs, coconut sugar, honey, and lemon juice over medium heat. Stir gently to ensure all ingredients are blended evenly.
- Once the mixture begins to bubble, reduce heat to medium-low and let it simmer for about 45 minutes, stirring frequently until thickened.
- When thickened, remove from heat and stir in pure vanilla extract, allowing it to cool slightly for about 10 minutes.
- Let the fig jam cool entirely to room temperature before transferring into clean, airtight jars. Refrigerate for up to 3 weeks or freeze for up to 6 months.

Notes
Choose fully ripe figs for best flavor. Experiment with sweeteners to suit taste. Stir often to prevent burning, especially as it thickens. For smoother texture, blend after cooking.
