Method

Set the oven temperature to 200 °C or 390 °F and let it heat up. Remove the stems from the figs and slice an X shape on the top of each one, halfway down.
Use a teaspoon to fill the figs with soft goat cheese. Top them with chopped walnuts and sage, and drizzle honey over them. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper as you like. I baked them in a Le Creuset rectangular dish that fit them perfectly.
Broil for about 5 minutes or until they look soft and release juice. Serve them warm or cold with a glass of wine. Enjoy!
