Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh raspberries
• 6 medium fresh figs
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 cup water
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 pinch salt

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the raspberries and figs under cold water. Pat dry with a clean towel.

Step 2

Trim the stems off the figs and slice them into quarters.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, combine the raspberries, figs, honey, lemon juice, water, and salt.

Step 4

Place the pan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring frequently, until the fruit softens and breaks down into a sauce-like consistency.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 7

Let the sauce cool slightly, then use an immersion blender or transfer to a regular blender to blend until smooth, if desired. Alternatively, leave the sauce chunky for texture.

Step 8

Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more honey, 1 teaspoon at a time.

Step 9

Transfer the sauce to a bowl or jar and let it cool completely before storing.

Step 10

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Serve warm or chilled as a topping or accompaniment.
