Most people have had dried figs (especially in fig newtons!), but fresh figs are a real treat, especially when used in a fig cake – la gâteau de figue!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 cup figs
- 3 eggs
- 1 stick butter
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 3 cups flour
- 1 cup pecans optional
- 1/2 cup raisins optional

Cream eggs, sugar and butter. Add flour, one cup at a time. Blend in the baking powder, figs, nuts, raisins, and soda. Pour into a greased and floured 9x13 pan. Bake at cake temperature (350 to 400) for 45 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Mmm I can smell it now!
