Baked Figs - gorgeous!

[jaylou]

I got this from the curry heaven book, meant to be a dessert but I've just had it for breakfast. Best of all, figs are in season and cheap right now!

Cut 2 figs in half, spray with fry light and sprinkle with cinnamon and sweetener.
Bake at 200 deg C for 10 mins
Mix sweetener in quark and fromage frais with a dash of almond extract and serve with the warm figs.

It states 2.5 syns as you are cooking the figs but I would eat 2 figs anyway so don't syn it. Up to you!

I used greek yoghurt this morning and also had a handful of freshly picked raspberries and it was lovely.

That does sound nice, think I'll give it a whirl. I'm with you on the syn thing, wouldn't syn it if that's what I'd normally eat

Yeah, If it was lots then I'd syn it, but It's not like they cook down to nothing, they stay as figs, just go a bit softer!!
It is quite lovely My new fave breakfast I think, while figs are still cheap anyway!

I'm with you Jaylou - I can't fathom why fruit would/should be syn'd just because it's lightly cooked. It's not as though it's puree'd (so 1/2 the digestive work has been done). I love dried figs but intend to try this receipe with the 'real thing'. ~Ta muchly
