My friend Joyce makes these all the time in late summer. They are amazing and couldn’t be easier!

What you’ll need:
Fresh ripe figs
Goat cheese
Honey

Wash the figs and slice a tiny bit off the top. Then score the top with a knife in an X pattern. Squeeze the bottom third of the fig until the top blossoms open. Add a blob of goat cheese in the centre. Drizzle honey from a spoon onto the figs.

That’s it. Serve room temperature. For a delicious twist, warm them in the oven or in foil on the BBQ.

If you like figs, you’ll love this! It’s such a beautiful, fresh starter to wet your appetite without being heavy.
