I really liked these. I cheated and used a store bought fig jam (in cheese section). I can't get figs here most of the time. If you go this route spread the jam thinly it is sweet and can be overpowering. They were quick and tasty. Watch them though they are easy to burn as with anything under the broiler. Also I did not use the oregano. It just didn't seem right.
I served this tonight for company and it was a hit! One thought there was too much cinnamon/cloves but the others wanted the recipe for sure. I followed the directions as written using both mission and calimyrna figs. I used Jazz apples rather than Granny Smith. Be sure to not over bake the plain bread before adding the other ingredients and I thought it was good to have the brie at room temp. Excellent appetizer! Thanks for making me look like a real pro ShannonMcK!
I made this for my annual New Year's Day open house and it was a hit! My "regulars" to the party said it needs to be on the menu every year so I'm making it again this year. I'm always in a hurry for party prep so I took a short cut and used Dalmatia Fig Spread instead of making the fig jam from scratch. It tasted awesome and saved me that step. This is a staple for my entertaining from now on.
This was great and simple to make. I made it Christmas Eve and it was a hit!
This was so yummy. I could eat that fig spread on almost anything!
These were absolutely delicious. Made them exactly as the recipe says and they were very tasty.
Nice recipe. May be a little too sweet with both the brown sugar and the figs. I may try reducing the brown sugar next time. All in all this was a great starter for dinner.
Holy moly these are delicious! I made these for breakfast and my husband and I loved them! The only thing I didn't do is puree the spread; I don't think it needed it. The flavors meld so nicely. Yum! It's a keeper!
We loved this. Had to use fig preserves - no fresh figs anywhere near - I checked.
This was easy and SO delicious. Could easily be desert as well as a starter. I cut the recipe into thirds - there are two of us. Perfect for a drink - Sauvignon Blanc - chilled. We will have this often. Would be great for a party, should we ever get to the point of having some again! Thanks for a great recipe
