Honey Roasted Figs With Cinnamon Recipes

HONEY ROASTED FIGS WITH CINNAMON RECIPE

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 400ºF/200ºC
• Cut a cross in the top of each fig, ensuring that you don't go more than half way down the fig. Use your fingers to push the fig open like a flower (See note 2)
• Place the the figs in a baking dish and add around a teaspoon of butter to each fig.
• Drizzle over the honey ensuring some falls over and into each fig.
• Sprinkle over the cinnamon.
• Grate a little lemon zest over each fig.
• Sprinkle the pistachios around the figs.
• Roast for 7-10 minutes until the figs have softened and the butter has melted into the honey.
• Serve warm with your chosen creamy element.

ROASTED FIGS WITH FRESH RICOTTA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the figs, cut side up, in a baking dish. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat, and whisk in the honey, cinnamon and salt. Drizzle the hot honey butter over the figs and roast in oven until very soft, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Divide the fresh ricotta or fat free yogurt among 4 serving dishes and top with the warm figs and sauce. Enjoy!
• Cook's Note: These hot figs are really great over mixed greens or even on a toasted baguette as a crostini!
