Homemade Fig Bars Recipe

2 cups Dried figs, stem removed and chopped

2 tbsp Honey or maple syrup, natural sweetener

1 ½ cups All-purpose flour, use oat flour for gluten-free

1 cup Rolled oats, adds chewiness

½ cup Brown sugar, optional for added sweetness

½ cup Butter or coconut oil, dairy-free option

Pinch Cinnamon & vanilla, for flavor depth

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking dish with parchment paper.
Make the fig filling by blending figs, honey, vanilla, and a splash of water until smooth and jam-like.
Prepare the crust by mixing flour, oats, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon until crumbly.
Press half of the crust mixture into the dish, spread the fig filling evenly, then sprinkle the remaining crust mixture on top.
Bake for about 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool before slicing into bars.
