Mmmm! I made this over the weekend as a project-I made some energy bars for my fiance and had figs left over. This is wonderful, VERY fast and VERY easy! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter |
12 ripe fresh figs, halved lengthwise |
1/4 cup brown sugar (you might want to add more...i did!) |
1 cup blanched slivered almond, toasted |
heavy cream (to garnish, optional, but the best part) |
Directions:
1. Melt the butter in a large skillet over high heat.
2. Add the fig halves and sprinkle liberally with brown sugar.
3. Saute, turning the figs gently, until warmed through, about 4 minutes. Be careful not to let the butter/brown sugar burn, just caramelize.
4. Sprinkle with toasted almonds and garnish with heavy cream.
