Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

12 fresh figs
4 ounces St. André cheese or other semisoft cheese like goat or Brie
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice an X into the stem side of each fig, cutting halfway down the fruit. Gently pry the figs open, taking care to keep the fruit intact. Stuff 1 teaspoon of cheese into each cavity, and sprinkle with a pinch of thyme. (May be covered and refrigerated for up to an hour before baking.)
  • Arrange figs cut side up on a baking sheet. Roast until the figs open and the cheese is melted, 4 to 7 minutes (less for ripe fruit). Season with pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
