Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350F. In a small pot, combine the figs, water, and sweetener. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the figs have softened. Set aside to cool. In a large bowl, combine the flour, rolled oats, sweetener, salt, baking powder, baking soada, oil, and water and stir together until well mixed. In a blender or food processor, blend the fig mixture and jam until smooth. Press half of the crust mixture onto the bottom of a lightly oiled 8x8 inch baking pan. Layer the fig mixture over top, spreading it out with the back of a large spoon. Press the remaining crust mixture over top. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned. Set aside to cool.
