Grilled Figs With Mascarpone And Spiced Honey

1. 1

   Preheat a grill or grill pan to high heat. Spray with cooking spray so that the figs will not stick.

2. 2

   Halve the figs and arrange on a plate, cut side up. Brush with olive oil.

3. 3

   Combine the turbinado sugar and mint leaves and sprinkle over the figs.

4. 4

   When the grill is ready, add the figs cut side down. Grill until grill marks appear, about 1-2 minutes.

5. 5

   Add the honey, cinnamon, cardamom, and allspice to a small heat-proof bowl. Add the bowl to a small pot over simmering water (if you have a double boiler, that would work great!). Heat over medium, whisking constantly, until the honey is warm and smooth, about 1-2 minutes.

6. 6

   Remove the figs from the grill and add 2 halves to four plates. Add a teaspoon (or more if you'd like) of mascarpone on top of each half.

7. 7

   Drizzle the warmed honey over each fig half and garnish with mint sprigs. Top with lemon zest if desired.
