Fig Preserves Bread image

I had some fig preserves in the fridge that needed to be used and I thought they would go great in bread. I tried to make the recipe low in fat, but I do love a slice of this slathered in butter. Taste your preserves to see how sweet they are... you may find you can cut down on the sugar.
