Instructions
Add figs and sugar in a large bowl; toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least
2 hours or overnight.
Bring fig mixture and cinnamon sticks to a simmer over medium heat in an enamel-coated cast-iron Dutch oven. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture is thickened and coats the back of
a spoon, 30 to 45 minutes. Skim surface of mixture frequently to discard any foam that collects.
Stir in lemon juice and zest. Cook for 1 minute; remove from heat.
Transfer jam to a glass jar. Seal,
and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for up to 1 month.
