Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Figs

From August to October, figs are in season. Whenever I come across fresh figs, I just have to buy them!

Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Figs

I’ve shared recipes in the past using this yummy ingredient — everything from adding it to a flatbread to turning it into a cookie filling to using it in a jam.

Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Figs

So today I figured I’d go a little simpler with a favorite appetizer: Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Figs!

Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Figs

This recipe is so easy, and uses just 4 ingredients. They are great for parties or just as an appetizer with friends.

Ingredients:

  • 12 fresh black mission figs
  • 2 oz blue cheese
  • 6 slices of bacon, cut in half crosswise
  • freshly ground pepper, to taste

Note: you’ll need toothpicks for this recipe

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.

While waiting for your oven to preheat, slice off the stem of the figs, then cut a slit about halfway down into the fig.

Take your blue cheese and crumble it using a fork or spoon.

Use your fingers to open in the slit in the fig, then stuff with some of the crumbled blue cheese, about 1/2 teaspoon.

Wrap the fig in the half slice of bacon, and secure with a toothpick. Add to a cookie sheet with a rack with the seam side of the bacon facing down.

Repeat with your remaining figs, cheese, and bacon. Add the stuffed figs to the oven and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy.

Remove from the oven and season with fresh ground pepper, and dig in!

For this recipe, I personally like a stinky blue cheese so that it stands up to the bacon flavor and the sweetness from the figs.

These are yummy straight from the oven and a room temperature, so they are wonderful as a make ahead option as well!
