Fig Tree in My Front Yard - I have a big, beautiful fig tree in my front yard that is teeming with fresh fruit right now. I need your fig recipe suggestions!

I have a big, beautiful fig tree in my front yard that is teeming with fresh fruit right now. When the figs first started appearing about a month ago, a squirrel living in our yard would devour the ripe ones before I had a chance to pick them. Now that we’re in the thick of fig season, the squirrel can’t keep up, and there is plenty of fruit to go around.

Fresh figs, when fully ripe, are like candy to me. They’re sweet and juicy and honey-like, not to mention incredibly beautiful. In the past I’ve stuffed them, topped warm gooey cheese with them, grilled them, made jams with them and sprinkled them on salads. Now I’m looking for more yummy ideas.

What are your favorite ways to prepare fresh figs? Do you prefer them raw or cooked? Please share your ideas in the comments below!

    I have lost 2 adult fig trees, over the last 44 years, to hard freezes, in Texas. I also had to beat the birds to the figs before they were fully grown. Enjoy yours while you can!
