Homemade Fig Spread

This is a thicker sauce and you can use it as a topper for toast or cookies, or just eat it with yogurt. I am a big fan of eating honey and figs in my yogurt.

I use this fig spread for all kinds of things, including marmalade for toast, add a layer of this into a cake, mix with yogurt and honey.
Place this on top of brie and bake in the oven for an awesome treat!
