Homemade Fig Newtons

Homemade Fig Newtons

Homemade Fig Newtons that are deliciously chewy & lightly sweet. This recipe is easy to make! All you need is a food processor or blender, a rolling pin, and parchment paper or silicon baking mats. Although figs are rich in natural sugar, they are also rich in fiber which slows the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream. Figs also contain potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron, and vitamin K.

Ingredients

Time: 1 hour 30 minutes

Homemade Fig Newtons

  • 6 oz. dried mission figs (about 1 cup)
  • Hot water for soaking
  • 1 Tbs orange juice or agave nectar (optional)
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 Tbs brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 1/4 cup creamy almond or cashew butter
  • 1/4 + 1 Tbs non-dairy or dairy milk (we used oat milk)

Directions

  1. Begin by soaking the figs in a medium bowl filled with hot water. Allow them to soak for 1 hour.
  2. After the figs have soaked, remove them from the water but save about 1-2 tablespoons for blending.
  3. Then, preheat the oven to 350ºF
  4. Using a blender or food processor, add in the figs, lemon juice, vanilla, and orange juice or agave nectar for a sweeter fig paste.
  5. Pulse the figs together but don’t over-blend into a puree. If the paste is too chunky, add some of the soaking water, however, you don’t want the mixture to be too watery.
  6. Then, in a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, cinnamon, and baking soda.
  7. Mix in the almond or cashew butter and brown sugar, whisking until combined.
  8. Next, add in the non-dairy or dairy milk and combine until the dough is formed. It should be solid but workable by hand and not too sticky.
  9. Using parchment paper or nonstick silicon baking mats, place the dough between two pieces and use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a thin, even rectangle.
  10. Use a spoon to distribute all the fig paste in a line down the middle of the cookie dough.
  11. Then, carefully fold the dough over the fig paste, one side at a time, and then flip the log seam side down.
  12. Cut the log into even pieces and place them on a baking sheet prepared with parchment paper.
  13. Place the bars in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden.
  14. Allow the bars to cool before enjoying them.

Store at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.

  • 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour)

Directions

  2. In a large bowl, peel & mash the bananas with a fork or whisk.
  3. Once mashed, mixed together well with the non-dairy butter or oil, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.

  6. Then, gently fold in the oats with a rubber spatula until fully incorporated.
  7. Fold in the flour until the batter is fully formed. Be careful not to over-mix the batter.
  8. Lastly, fold in the blueberries until evenly distributed in the batter.
  9. Transfer the batter to the loaf pan and place it in the oven.
  10. Bake for 50-55 minutes. The top should be crisp and firm and test the inside by poking with a toothpick or butter knife. If it comes out clean, your bread is done.
  11. Allow it to cool before enjoying it!

Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or at room temperature for 3 days.
