Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces Fresh figs
- 120 grams Camembert cheese
- 8 pieces Prosciutto slices
- 2 teaspoons Fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Cracked black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash the figs gently under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Slice each fig in half lengthwise.
Cut the Camembert cheese into small slices or wedges (roughly 15 grams each) that will fit inside the halved figs.
Place one slice of Camembert onto the cut side of each halved fig.
Wrap each fig half with a slice of prosciutto, ensuring the cheese is snugly secured inside. Place the wrapped figs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle the fresh thyme leaves evenly over the figs. Drizzle the honey and olive oil on top, then season with cracked black pepper to taste.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the prosciutto is crispy and the Camembert is melted and gooey.
Remove the figs from the oven and let them cool slightly for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Transfer the wrapped figs to a serving platter and garnish with additional thyme leaves for presentation, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
