With a few fresh figs and your Instant Pot, you’ll be able to obtain this delicious and naturally sweet fig jam!
Homemade jams are always better than the store-bought ones.
You can use it to make fig rolls or eat together with cheese for a gourmet appetizer.
If you are feeling fancy, try it on toast, with cheese and foie gras.
You can also try it over air fryer frozen waffles or crepini egg wrap.

No. And then you can a recipe with only 3 ingredients 🙂
But in my opinion chia seeds add a great taste and texture to this jam.
Which figs to use?

How to choose the figs?
Choose only completely ripe figs since they are better for jam (and also cheaper!).
