Thanks, John! I'm having so much fun on your site! I invited 6 friends yesterday.

My husband loves fig newtons and I do too, but I'm allergic to wheat. I use whole spelt flour instead of wheat in this yummy, healthy treat.
Ingredientes
- 2 cups whole spelt flour
- 1 cup unsalted butter, chilled
- 1 cup sucanat (organic sugar), divided
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons spiced rum
- 1 pint fresh figs, stems removed
- 1/4 cup apple juice
- 1/8 cup orange juice
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Direcciones
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Blend flour, butter, 1/2 cup sugar and salt in food processor until blended into coarse dough.
- Add 1 tablespoon rum, blend until formed into moist dough. Set aside 1 cup of dough for topping.
- Press remaining dough into 11" x 7" pan.
- In processor (do not clean), blend figs, juices, nutmeg, 1/2 cup sugar, and 3 tablespoons rum to coarse paste.
- Carefully spread filling over dough in pan.
- Drop reserved dough in small pats over filling.
- Bake until lightly brown, about 35 minutes.
- Cool in pan, then cut into squares and serve.
