Baked figs with honey

Ingredients

  • 50 ml of honey, orange flower best
  • A nut butter (a tablespoon, approx.)
  • 15 ml of Grand Marnier or Cointreau
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon (more ground in a mortar)
  • 8-10 ripe figs
  • 1 teaspoon of thyme (a few sprigs)
  • grated orange.

Procedure

  1. Preheat oven to 200 º C. Heat the honey with butter, cinnamon and Grand Marnier in a bowl until it has melted and is liquid. All this without stirring.
  2. Cut figs in quarters, avoiding the separation of the whole and united at the base. I think it's best to cut off the tail the four sides, keeping the union at the base of fig. This can more easily acquire the taste to the sauce and remaining upright. For once I have done the reverse, cutting through the base and leaving end and crumbles more easily.
  3. We put the figs on a tray or Pyrex and pour the juice over them. Above some sprigs of thyme will better cool. Introduce into the oven and let cook for about 20-25 minutes. If we do not like the taste of thyme, can only make the last minutes, is sufficient to flavor figs.
  4. Finally, a little grated orange peel and serve still warm.

  2. Cover with another sheet of puff pastry. Painted with egg, sprinkle with sugar and introduced into the oven for half an hour or so.
  3. We can even cover it with some nuts or sugar glass.

    Wow! I had no idea there were so many ways to prepare figs!! We used to have a fig tree in our yard in Oregon, and I’m sad to say I never looked up fig recipes like this before! I used to make these really tasty energy bars out of dried figs (still partially moist), and I blended them with nuts, chocolate, seeds, etc. and we always took them on bike rides with us!
