Honey-Roasted Figs with Labneh & Pistachios

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 35 minutes
Total Time 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 c. whole-fat plain yogurt
  • ½ t. salt
  • cheesecloth
  • 8 large ripe figs cut in half lengthwise
  • 3 T. local honey divided
  • ¼ c. pistachios chopped

Instructions

  • 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, pre-heat 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 pre-heated 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 local honey and serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!
