Ingredients

Servings
  • 8 oz pear 230g, approx 1 large pear, peeled & cored weight
  • 6 oz figs 175g, fresh
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour 100g plain flour
  • ½ cup whole wheat flour 62g wholemeal flour
  • ½ cup hazelnut flour 50g ground hazelnuts
  • 2 tablespoon sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 6 tablespoon butter 85g
  • ¼ cup buttermilk 4tbsp
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Peel and core the pear and remove the tough stems from the figs. Dice both into bite-size pieces (the figs will be in around 8ths, depending on size).
  2. Toss the pear and fig pieces in the balsamic vinegar and roast for 20min at 375F/190C.
  3. Remove from oven, toss the pieces of fruit in the juices that have formed so they take on the flavor/stickiness, and allow them to cool while you prepare dough - they can also be roasted ahead of time and used cold.
  4. Mix the dry ingredients - the flours, sugar, salt, baking powder and cinnamon - then rub in the butter to form breadcrumbs. Add the buttermilk and vanilla, mix lightly, then the fruit and mix gently until combined.
  5. Tip the mixture onto a well-floured surface, flatten and shape into a circle or rectangle and cut into triangles or squares/rectangles.
  6. Carefully transfer onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 375F/190C for 18-20mins until they are lightly golden. Remove to a cooling rack.
