Remember the blueberry pie post I did a few weeks ago? Well, I did fig version recently and it was AMAZING! The figs were from a local farm.
Peeled all the figs and that took forever! Then I chopped them up like so. I only sprinkled a bit of sugar on them, like the recipe calls for, so its a very naturally sweet tasting pie.
I am still learning how to roll out the pie crust made from scratch. So my pie crust topping is a little kooky looking. Whatever. It was delicious.

February 12, 2012 at 3:23 AMWhy did you peel the figs? I can Fig Perserves and the figs do not need to be peeled, only rinsed. The pie sounds delicious and I will have to give it a try. I have made Fig Cake before. It was a hit with the Ladies Church Group. It’s nice to have recipes whenever there is an overabundance of figs. Thanks for sharing your recipes.
