Description

Ingredients

• 1/2 Cup butter, softened
• 1/2 Cup brown sugar
• 1 Egg
• 1 Cup flour
• 1/2 Cup whole wheat flour
• 1/4 Tsp cinnamon, ground
• 1/4 Tsp baking soda
• 1 1/2 Cup dried figs
• 1/2 Cup water
• 1 1/2 Cup Cranberries, frozen
• Zest from a small orange
• 1/2 Tsp cinnamon, ground
• 1/2 Tsp nutmeg, ground
• 1/2 Tbsp honey

Directions

• In a bowl, mix the butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in the egg to combine.
• In another bowl, combine the flours, cinnamon and baking soda. Add this dry mixture to the butter mixture and mix to combine.
• Make the dough into a disc and cover with plastic wrap. Chill for at least 1 hour.
• Put the ingredients in a saucepan and cook over low heat for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and cool for a few minutes.
• Process in a food processor until it becomes a paste. Put the filling in a piping bag.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• On a floured surface, roll the chilled dough into a 10 x14 rectangle. Trim edges using a knife. Cut the dough lengthwise into three 3.5x14 strips.
• Apply the filling down the middle of each strip of dough. Fold each edge of dough on top of the filling, making a log, sealing the edges. Place seam side down on the baking sheet and cut each log into 2 bars.
• Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
