Figs

Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Bland

    Step 1

    Try powdered cinnamon, or you can stir 1/4 teaspoon powdered cardamom into 1/2 cup honey and spoon it over the figs. Also try adding 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary to 1/4 cup boiling water. Remove it from the heat and let steep until the water is cool. Strain out the rosemary and pour the water over the figs.

  2. Stuck together

    Step 2

    When dried figs stick together, heat the whole shebang in the oven at 300°F for a few minutes.
