Sticky Cinnamon Figs - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 ripe figs
2 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons clear honey
1/3 cup shelled pistachio nut
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preparation

Heat grill (broiler) to medium. Cut a deep cross in the top of each fig and ease apart like a flower.
Set figs in a baking dish and drop a small piece of butter in the centre of each fruit. Drizzle honey over figs, and sprinkle with nuts and cinnamon.
Grill 5 minutes until figs are softened and honey and butter make a sticky sauce.
Serve warm, with mascarpone or yogurt.
