½ cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup flax seed meal
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 24 muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.
Place half of the figs in a blender; blend until smooth. Chop remaining figs with a sharp knife.
