Ingredients

For Fig and Honey Infused Milk:

2 cups milk or almond milk for a vegan option
4 ripe figs sliced
2 tbsp honey
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon for garnish

For Almond Fig Bars:

1 cup dried figs tightly packed
1 cup almonds finely ground
1/2 cup oat flour or finely ground oats for a more rustic texture
1/4 cup honey plus extra for glazing
1 tsp vanilla extract
A pinch of sea salt
Cinnamon for dusting

Instructions

Fig and Honey Infused Milk:

Combine milk, sliced figs, and honey in a saucepan.
Heat the mixture on a low flame, stirring occasionally until it reaches a mild simmer.
Remove from heat, cover, and let it infuse for 10 minutes.
Strain into cups, garnish with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon, and serve warm.

Almond Fig Bars:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a food processor, combine dried figs, ground almonds, oat flour, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Process until the mixture becomes sticky and holds together.
Press the mixture firmly into the prepared tray, creating an even layer.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden.
While still warm, brush the top with additional honey for a glaze and sprinkle with cinnamon.
Allow the bars to cool completely in the tray before cutting into individual bars.
