There's hardly anything more simple than this easy brûléed figs recipe, but that's the beauty here. Simply cut the figs in half, sprinkle them with plenty of icing sugar, then either place them into a hot oven for 25 minutes or blowtorch them for even quicker results. They become jammy, soft, extra sweet and the perfect topper for any festive dessert, or even an accompaniment to an artisan cheese board.
