Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • All-purpose flour, for dusting
  • 1 sheet (8.64 ounce) puff pastry (1/2 box of Pepperidge Farm Frozen Puff Pastry, thawed overnight in the refrigerator)
  • 4 ounces goat cheese (fresh, softened)
  • 1/4 cup honey (preferably dark)
  • 14 ounces dried figs (8 medium ripe fresh figs, or 6 large figs, stemmed and quartered lengthwise)
  • 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
  • Kosher salt
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 475°F.

  • Step 2: Lightly dust a sheet of parchment with flour.

  • Step 3: Unfold the thawed puff pastry, place on top of the parchment, and lightly dust with flour. Roll out the pastry to a 10-inch square. Prick all over with a fork at 1/2-inch intervals. Make a 3/4-inch border on all sides by pressing the edge of a ruler into the pastry to mark it. Fold the pastry over at the markings to make a double-thick rim. Transfer the pastry on the parchment to a rimmed baking sheet. (The pastry can be prepared up to this point a few hours ahead and kept in the refrigerator).

  • Step 4: Bake until the center is golden-brown and puffed, about 8 minutes.

  • Step 5: Meanwhile, combine the goat cheese and 2 tablespoons of the honey in a medium bowl. Spread the cheese mixture inside the border of the puff pastry. Arrange the figs on the cheese. Sprinkle with the rosemary and salt. Bake until the rim of the pastry is golden-brown, about 7 minutes.

  • Step 6: Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of honey and cool for about 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
