Honey Roasted Figs (thank you Heather)



I can thank my dear friend Heather (of the food blog Mange Mange) for this delectable dish.  Figs have always been a bit of a mystery to me- I love them when I have them at restaurants but never buy them because I have no idea what to do them but this recipe couldn't be easier and is the perfect end to a long day.

The flavor is delicate and earthy, with just enough sweetness.  We enjoyed them over Vanilla/ Almond ice cream and they were divine.
