BALSAMIC ROASTED FIGS WITH GOAT CHEESE (Adapted from Jennifer Garner)

My fig tree is FINALLY bearing fruit!  Now I’m spilling over with fresh figs!

I’ve been using them in salads, desserts and now this dish!  I’m serving these figs roasted then drizzled with good balsamic vinegar and topped with toasted pine nuts and goat cheese.  Saw Jennifer Garner make this dish on her “Pretend Cooking Show” on Instagram.  It’s to die for!
10-12 fresh figs1-2 TBSP balsamic vinegarSalt1/4 cup pine nuts2-3 TBSP crumbled goat cheese

Cut figs in half and remove the stems. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and salt.

Roast at 200 degrees F for 2 hours. Then turn up the oven to 275 degrees F for another 30-45 minutes, or until they look caramelized.
Toast some pine nuts in a dry pan. Garnish the figs with the pine nuts, some goat cheese, a little more balsamic and a drizzle of honey and devour!
