  • 1/2 cup walnuts, quartered and toasted
  • Balsamic vinegar
  • Salt
Yield
Serves: 6-8
Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Slice the figs in half lengthwise, place them on a baking sheet and dig a little hole in the middle with your pinky finger. Drizzle the fig halves with 2 or 3 drops of balsamic vinegar and sprinkle with salt.

Fill each fig with Gorgonzola and top with a walnut quarter. Bake for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Fig out!
