Fill large mouth mason jar with figs. Top with vanilla bean.

In medium saucepan over medium heat; mix amaretto, water and sugar. Bring to a boil while occasionally whisking.

Gently boil for 5 minutes while whisking. Mixture will reduce and become slightly syrupy.

Remove from heat and let cool 5-10 minutes.

Pour liquid over figs. (The mason jar cannot be cold!)

Seal jar with lid and refrigerate overnight. (or at least 4 hours)

Eat within 4-5 days.
