Unsweetened Fig Butter Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Unsweetened Fig Butter Recipe). Use dried figs and your Instant Pot® to create this luscious, date-sweetened fig butter. One of the things I now love, just as much as I hated as a kid, are figs. So of course, I set out to make my own naturally sweet fig butter. It's thick, it's sweet, and it's jam-packed with crunch in every bite. And 2 out of my 3 kids 100% agree. The third child helped me make it and can't be convinced that the dates aren't big bugs.
