Ingredients
- 2 cups of dried figs
- 1 cup of walnuts
- 1 tablespoon of honey
Instructions
1. Begin by preheating your oven to 200°F (93°C).
2. Take the dried figs and give them a good rinse under cold water. Pat them dry with a clean towel or paper towel.
3. Using a sharp knife, make a small cut at the top of each fig to allow the walnuts to be stuffed inside.
4. Take your walnuts and carefully stuff one into each dried fig. Press gently to ensure they are secure.
5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the stuffed figs on it, making sure they are evenly spaced.
6. Drizzle the honey over the stuffed figs, making sure to coat them evenly.
7. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and let the figs bake for approximately 2 hours, or until they are fully dried. You can check their doneness by gently pressing them – they should be firm but not hard.
8. Once dried, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the figs cool completely.
9. Store the dried figs with walnuts in an airtight container at room temperature. They will stay fresh and delicious for up to two weeks.
