Chef's Tips

For a richer flavor, add a small pat of butter to each fig before baking.

Serve warm or at room temperature.

The baked figs can be prepared ahead of time and reheated gently before serving.

Pair this dessert with a main course like Grilled Lamb Chops with Rosemary or Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken.
