Ingredients
1 1/3 cups walnuts (or macadamia nuts, peacan or brazil nuts).
1/4 cup caster sugar.
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon.
1 tablespoon sesame seeds.
2 1/2 tablespoons honey.
8 firm figs, halved.
Greek-style yoghurt or vanilla ice-cream to serve.
Method
Using a food processor, add the walnuts, sugar and cinnamon, and process until walnuts are finely chopped (not ground).
Pour into a bowl.
Add sesame seeds and honey, and stir until the mixture comes together. It will form a soft, sticky ball.
Press some of the mixture on to the cut surface of each fig, a teaspoon full at a time.
Line a frying-pan with baking paper, and place over medium heat.
Place fig halves, cut side down into the pan and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until golden.
Remove to a plate and repeat process with the figs that remain.
Serving
Serve warm or at room temperature with yoghurt or ice-cream.
