Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Fresh figs
- 4 ounces Goat cheese
- 12 slices Bacon
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 12 pieces Toothpicks
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse the figs and pat them dry. Using a small paring knife, make a small incision on one side of each fig, being careful not to cut all the way through.
Stuff each fig with about 1 teaspoon of goat cheese, adjusting the amount based on the size of the fig. Be gentle to avoid tearing the fruit.
Wrap each stuffed fig with a slice of bacon, securing it in place with a toothpick.
Place the wrapped figs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.
Drizzle the honey evenly over the figs and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves for added flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and golden brown. Rotate the baking sheet halfway through the cooking time for even crisping.
Remove the figs from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm as a delightful appetizer or snack.
