Fig Jam Biscuits
I recently found a scrumptious biscuit recipe for Spiced Fig Jam Drops in The Gourmet Traveller. The recipe appealed to me for a number of reasons; it looked mouthwatering, I love biscuits (especially ones with jam as the centrepiece), appeared easy to prepare, and required a component of homemade fig jam – something I have made plenty of this summer thanks to mum’s homegrown figs.
Although, my fig jam is more a fig compote (I cook it out longer to create a thicker mass rather than a runny jam). I prefer this texture and enjoy its versatility on cheese plates, spread 
on toast and now in biscuits.
Consequently, I substituted the original recipe’s spiced fig jam with my own fig compote recipe and changed the title to Fig Jam Biscuits. You could easily use any jam you have in the fridge; however figs are still accessible, so give my fig compote recipe a go and add it to the biscuit recipe provided below. Hope you like this version and enjoy them as much as we have!
