Ingredients

  • 2 small or 1 large crusty baguette I like to use sourdough
  • 3 slices prosciutto
  • 3-4 large fresh figs sliced - not too thin. see notes for alternatives
  • 20 grams Semi or soft goats cheese. This recipe uses the French style Chevre goats cheese roll. You can also use spreadable.
  • Butter Optional
  • red onion sliced - optional

Instructions

  • Cut the baguette longways.
  • Optional - butter the inside of the baguette.
  • Layer the prosciutto loosely in folds along the bottom half of the baguette. Approx 4-5 slices for a large baguette. 2-3 for a small.
  • Layer with the slices of figs and cheese alternating them down the length of the sandwich. If using a spreadable cheese either dollop it on top of figs or spread along the underside of the top half of the baguette.
  • If adding red onion, layer on top of the figs and cheese.
  • Close the sandwich and wrap
  • If making one large baguette, wrap it in paper in sections tied with a string and cut into portions. If making two small baguettes. wrap tightly in paper and tie with a string or eco reusable sandwich wrap.

Notes

If you don’t have fresh figs, use a quality fig chutney or fig spread instead.
