Baked Figs and Apples With Granola Topping

This is the new ‘comfort’ food. Sooooo good and the granola topping makes it even better.

• 2 tbsp. liquid honey
• 2 tbsp. dark brown sugar
• 2 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
• 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
• 4 Granny Smith apples, peeled and coarsely chopped
• 10 fresh figs, stems removed and finely chopped **
• 1 cup granola

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine the honey, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla in a bowl and whisk to combine thoroughly. Add the apples and figs and coat with the mixture.

Grease a 12 x 12 baking dish and pour the mixture in. Sprinkle the granola over the top, cover with foil and bake for 25-30 minutes (until the apples are tender).

Remove the foil and bake another 5-6 minutes. Let stand at least 10 minutes before diving in. You can’t yet….you forgot the vanilla ice cream (or whipped cream) to just add a little more pizzazz!

**Do not use dried figs. They leave an unsatisfactory taste in your mouth.
