HOMEMADE FIG BARS
In this recipe, honey-sweetened figs are tucked inside a tender whole-wheat cookie. Both of my kids agreed they were superior to the store-bought versions they had tried at a friend's house -- they couldn't keep their mitts out of the tin I put them in.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place the figs in a small heatproof bowl, cover with hot water and soak for 10 minutes. Remove the figs from the water with a slotted spoon and transfer to a food processor. Add the honey and 1 tablespoon of the soaking liquid. Puree until smooth and spreadable. Set aside.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl with a handheld mixer, beat together the butter and sugar until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and mix until incorporated. Add the flour and mix until a dough forms.
- Place the dough between two pieces of parchment, then roll into two 12-by-4-inch rectangles.
- Spread the fig filling on one half of each rectangle, spreading up the 12-inch side and leaving a 1/4- to 1/2-inch border.
- Fold the dough over on top of itself and gently press the dough together at the edges. Cut each log into 10 cookies and transfer to baking sheet lined with a silicone baking mat or parchment. Bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
WHOLE WHEAT FIG BARS
These are delicious and just like the old "Fig Newtons" I remember from when I was a kid. Recipe comes from a very old tattered cookie book that no longer has a cover that belonged to my Mom. They were always a treat around Christmas time.

- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- 2. Make the filling: Remove the hard stem tip from your dried figs, if they have one. Then, measure out figs in a glass measuring cup, and cover with hot tap water. Let soak for at least 15 minutes to help them soften. Drain soaked figs and add them to a blender or food processor with all other filling ingredients. Blend until combined. This mixture will be thick an sticky, but shouldn't have any large chunks of fig left. Set filling aside.
- 3. Make crust/topping: Stir together coconut oil, almond butter, honey, and vanilla in a bowl. Add in all remaining ingredients, and stir to combine. This mixture will be slightly crumbly.
- 4. Scoop half of the crust mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan, and use your fingers to evenly spread it across the pan. Then, press down firmly with your fingers to form the bottom crust. Scrape the fig mixture out of the blender and spread it across the crust layer in the pan. Then, use your hands to crumble the remaining dough on top of the fig layer. Use your fingers to press down on and flatten the topping to help solidify the bars.
