This quick and elegant recipe pairs the natural sweetness of fresh figs with creamy goat cheese, a drizzle of golden honey, and the crunch of toasted walnuts, all enhanced by a hint of fresh thyme and a touch of seasoning. Ready in just 15 minutes, these roasted gems are baked to perfection, creating a warm, melty center while maintaining their luscious texture. Whether you serve them as a sophisticated starter or a show-stopping party snack, these stuffed figs are sure to impress.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Rinse the fresh figs under cold water and pat them dry with a kitchen towel. Carefully cut each fig in half lengthwise.
Using a small spoon, scoop out a tiny bit of the center of each fig to create space for the goat cheese.
Fill each fig half with approximately 1 teaspoon of goat cheese. Smooth the top with the back of the spoon to level it.
Arrange the filled figs on the prepared baking sheet, cut side up.
Drizzle the honey evenly over all the figs. Sprinkle with the toasted and chopped walnuts, thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper.
Bake the figs in the preheated oven for 5–7 minutes, just until the cheese is warmed and slightly melty, but not fully oozing.
Remove the figs from the oven and allow them to cool for 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving plate and serve warm or at room temperature.
