5.Strain the custard through a fine mesh sieve into a large bowl. Add the vanilla extract, kosher salt, and ground cinnamon, and whisk to combine.
6.Once the fig mixture has cooled slightly, puree it in a blender or food processor, and then add it to the custard. Stir to combine.
7.Chill the mixture for at least 2 hours or until cold.
8.Churn the custard in an ice cream maker for 20-25 minutes, or until thick and creamy. Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
