- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, minced
- 6 ounces Gorgonzola cheese

How to Make

Step 1: In a small saucepan bring the honey to a gentle simmer. Remove from heat and add in the thyme sprigs. Let sit for at least 15 minutes, removing the sprigs and letting them drain before use.

Step 2: Cut the figs in half and toss with olive oil and minced thyme leaves. Grill over hot coals until they are heated through but not collapsed, about 1-2 minutes per side. Remove to a platter.
-
Step 3: Cut baguette into 1/2” slices. Liberally drizzle with olive oil and toast over the hot coals until lightly browned on both sides.
-
Step 4: Spread each toast with crumbled Gorgonzola and place on top of this a roasted fig half. Drizzle the warm thyme honey over the top and serve.
