This fig and honey jam is one of my favorite things to make in late summer when fresh figs are at their peak. There's something magical about watching all those sweet, jammy figs break down into this gorgeous preserve, enriched with warming spices like cinnamon and cloves. The beauty of this recipe is that it comes together in just under two hours, and you probably have most of the ingredients in your pantry already. Plus, those walnuts aren't just delicious, they're packed with omega 3 fatty acids that are wonderful for your heart health. One jar of this homemade jam makes the perfect gift, or keep it all for yourself to spread on toast, yogurt, or cheese boards.
