Recipe for Honey Roasted Figs with Labneh & Pistachios
Ingredients:
2 cups whole-fat plain yogurt
8 large ripe figs, cut in half lengthwise
3 tbsp. local honey, divided
½ tsp. salt
¼ cup pistachios, chopped
Cheesecloth
Tip: If you don’t have time to prepare the labneh for this recipe, you can substitute goat cheese or even cream cheese for a less tangy alternative.
Directions:
1. To make the labneh, combine yogurt and salt in a small bowl and stir until blended. Line a metal strainer with several layers of cheesecloth and position strainer over a large, deep bowl.
2. Transfer yogurt mixture to the lined strainer and cover. Place in the refrigerator to drain for 1-2 days. The longer the yogurt is strained, the firmer the labneh will become.
3. To prepare roasted figs, preheat oven to 350°F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat® baking sheet.
Arrange sliced figs on baking sheet, cut side up, and drizzle with some honey.
4. Place baking sheet in preheated oven and roast for 30-35 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for several minutes.
5. Top each roasted fig with a spoonful of fresh labneh and a sprinkle of chopped pistachios. Drizzle with some honey and serve immediately.
Prep time: 10 minutes + time to strain labneh (1-2 days)
