My mother has been making these spiced figs for 30 years. Made with the cinnamon and cloves you will not be able to eat plain figs again, they are too boring.

These spiced figs are a great way to use up ripe figs. They're also a healthy and delicious snack. I like to eat them with yogurt or oatmeal.

These spiced figs are amazing! I made them for a party last weekend and they were a huge hit. The combination of sweet figs, warm spices, and a hint of orange zest is just perfect. I'll definitely be making these again and again.
