Fig Holiday Coffee Creamer
Making holiday coffee creamer with Golden Figs brings a taste of fall to coffee. Figs add body, flavor & sweetness to DIY coffee creamer.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups whole milk (divided)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 8 ounce bag Orchard Choice or Sun-Maid Mission Dried Golden Figs , stemmed and quartered
- 1/4 cup heavy cream optional
Instructions
- In a saucepan, pour 1 1/2 cups whole milk with the sugar set over medium heat. You want to cook the mixture until the sugar dissolves: Cook for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn heat to medium low and cook an additional 3 minutes, stirring as needed. Turn off the heat.
- Stir in the figs. Set aside to steep for 30 minutes.
- In a blender, process until almost smooth (it will be pretty thick). Set a fine-mesh strainer over a bowl.
- Pour the creamer into the strainer and stir until what remains in the strainer basket resembles a dry paste. Set aside the solids and store separately in the refrigerator.
- Strain the creamer again if desired and add in the remaining 1 cup of whole milk, and 1/4 cup of heavy cream if desired. Store the creamer in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
