Slow-Cooker Fig Butter

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds whole figs about 20
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• ½ cup brown sugar
• ⅓ cup molasses
• 3 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp nutmeg
• 1 tsp pumpkin spice

Directions:

1. Cut the stems off the figs & slice them in half. Place figs in the slow cooker.
2. Add sugar, brown sugar, molasses, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and pumpkin spice – cover.
3. Cook on high approx 3-4 hours- stirring occasionally. If it looks like the figs are breaking down faster or it is getting too thick, you can reduce the heat, shorten the cooking time or add a splash of water to thin it out.
4. Once figs are falling apart- use an immersion blender to break up any large pieces.
