Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180C.
Score the tops of the figs about 1/3 of the way down in 2 directions (criss-cross) and then using your thumbs squeeze the fig to open up the fruit a little.
Make the marinade by whisking the vinegar, honey, Dijon and ½ tsp thyme in a small jug.
Scatter the sprigs of thyme on the bottom of a small oven-proof baking dish and arrange the cut figs on top of that. Keep a space on one end to place the Camembert, which will go in a little later. Drizzle ¾ of the sauce over the figs aiming to pour as much into their middle as possible.
Bake the figs for 10 minutes. Then remove; add the Camembert, drizzle the remaining sauce over the cheese and continue baking for a further 10 minutes (total baking time 25 minutes). Serve immediately with bread or crackers.
