Default preserved figs

I'm looking for a recipe my mom called "pickled figs" except there was
no vinegar in it. Other than simple syrup and a few things like a
cinnamon stick, I have no idea what she put in it. She followed a
recipe in a cookbook - but she moved shortly after I decided I wanted
to try making it myself. She claimed her cookbook was boxed up and it
stayed that way for years. After she finally freed her cookbooks, I
tried looking for it in the ones she said she used, but didn't find
it.

Would anyone have any idea what this is? They were delicious and I
think about them every fig season.

TIA




Look for a recipe for "preserved figs", lots of folks around here still
make them but I find it too fiddly to mess with.
