Best 6 Simple Yogurt With Fresh Figs Recipes

YOGURT WITH FRESH FIGS, HONEY, AND PINE NUTS

Steps:

• Toast pine nuts in a dry small skillet over medium-low heat, tossing often, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Immediately transfer to a plate.
• Heat honey and rose water in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until very runny, about 1 minute (do not let boil); let cool.
• Serve yogurt and figs drizzled with warm honey mixture and topped with pine nuts.

COCONUT YOGURT WITH FRESH FIGS AND APPLES

Steps:

• Crack open the coconuts with a cleaver or coconut knife and scrape out the coconut meat with the backside of a spoon. Remove any shell pieces or hard particles and rinse with fresh water. Place the coconut meat, coconut water, agave nectar, lime juice, sea salt, acidophilus probiotic powder if using and the lime zest in a high-speed blender and blend until completely smooth. Top with blueberries and goji berries and serve with fresh figs and apple slices. If you desire a firmer, chilled yogurt, place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving.

GREEK BLOSSOMS - FRESH FIGS WITH HONEY, YOGURT, AND WALNUTS

Steps:

• Use a sharp knife to mark an "X" on the top of each fig, being careful not to cut more than 3/4 of the way down the fruit.
• Spread open each fig 'blossom', to expose the pink center. Arrange the figs on a platter.
• Use a small spoon to fill each fig with marmalade, Greek yogurt, and honey. Dust with cinnamon.
• Finish with small chunks of herbed chevre, walnut pieces, and fresh mint sprigs. Serve immediately.
• Good with Carr's whole wheat crackers or baguette slices, for a more substantial snack.
• VARIATION: Substitute creme fraiche for the yogurt, mascarpone cheese with lemon zest for the herbed chevre, and green pistachios instead of walnuts. Drizzle with honey and dust with cinnamon -- yum!

FRESH FIGS AND YOGURT

Steps:

• Submerge figs in hot (not boiling) water for 1 minute.
• Drain, peel, and quarter each fig.
• Beat the cream lightly, and blend it into the yogurt.
• Spoon a little of the cream mixture into four sherbet glasses.
• Top with a layer of figs and continue with alternating layers, finishing with a layer of cream.
• Sprinkle each layer with the sugar.
• NOTE: If I want this to be rather sweet, I sprinkle sugar on top of each cream layer, if I want less, I only use it on the very top.
• It's up to you.
• I have tossed the figs in the sugar before with decent results.
• Chill in the refrigerator for at least two hours to allow the sugar to melt into the cream.
