  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  2. With a sharp paring knife, remove any stems from the figs. Cut each fig in half lengthwise.
  3. Drizzle a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Place the figs cut side up on the baking sheet. Drizzle with an additional tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle very lightly with cinnamon.
