  • 1/2  cup honey
  • 1/3 cup dried figs, ground & firmly packed
  • 2/3 cup butter, softened to room temperature
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Method

Preheat oven to 350°F.

In a large bowl, beat brown sugar, honey, first measure of figs and butter until creamy and blended, about 3-5 minutes. Add eggs and mix until well blended.

In a separate bowl, mix together baking soda, salt, cinnamon, vanilla, remaining figs, and nutmeg.  When completely blended  add to creamed mixture. Stir in flour, oatmeal, and nuts and mix 2 minutes on low speed, then 3 minutes on medium speed.
