Background

Baked figs with honey & pistachio is classic Greek dessert, normally served with creamy yoghurt. I made my version a bit more festive by adding orange to the recipe - so these Honey and orange baked figs are perfect during the winter festivities, particularly in a Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine’s Day or special anniversary menu.

Ingredients

8 small ripe figs
1 tsp of soft butter or dairy-free spread
1 Tbsp honey
1 small orange, zest and juice
about 200g Greek yogurt or plant-based yogurt
50g pistachio nuts (unsalted)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Cut the figs in half and place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
Mix the orange juice with the honey.
Rub the figs with a piece of butter then drizzle the orange honey over them.
Bake for 15 minutes until the figs are tender and sticky.
Meanwhile, mix the yogurt with the grated orange zest.
Coarsely chop the pistachio.
Spoon the figs into small dessert bowls ( 2 or 4 per person). Add a dollop of yogurt, scatter some pistachio pieces on top, then drizzle with the baking jus and some more honey if you like.
Serve warm.
