Honey is one of the most versatile ingredients in cooking, but it can be hard to find. Here’s how to use this natural wonder for baking and savory dishes alike.
The “fig goat cheese honey tart” is a sweet and savory dish that can be made with figs, goat cheese, honey, and flour. It is perfect for the summertime or any time of year.
Today, I had a fantastic breakfast at one of my favorite restaurants in town. Cappuccinos and a Turkish breakfast large enough for two persons crammed my face. Cheese on top of cheese, a bread basket (yep, a basket! ), jams, eggs, grape leaves, tomato, olives…ah! The list could go on and on. Oh, and then I split a waffle topped with vanilla ice cream and coconut flakes and drizzled with raspberry and nutella. So, in a nutshell, I was in gastronomic nirvana. That’s how you’ll feel after creating this Fig, Goat Cheese, and Honey galette!
Following that, my buddy Chapin needed ingredients for her latest drink at her bar, so we went to Whole Foods to purchase some passionfruit. As soon as we entered the shop, there were these lovely tiny figs hanging out in those adorable blue-green pint baskets. I couldn’t help myself! I’ve always liked cooking with figs, so I knew I needed to do a Broma article right then. I began making up a recipe in my brain after a fast round of Google, and voila! A fig and goat cheese galette was my choice.
So, after an already fantastic morning with friends, I’m here in my oh-so-hot apartment in a swimming suit, sweating my arse off, writing, and eating my fig and goat cheese galette. Oh, and I’m still listening to Jay Z and Justin Timberlake’s new song on repeat. Damn. Today is a fantastic day.

Ingredients
- 1 pie crust (pre-made)
- 6 big figs, quartered and stemmed
- 4 ounces room temperature goat cheese
- 3 tbsp honey, with a little more to sprinkle
- 1 teaspoon rosemary, coarsely chopped (fresh or dried)
- 1 beaten egg white
- a half teaspoon of salt
- 2 tablespoons truffle oil to drizzle (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Combine the goat cheese, honey, and salt in a small bowl. Set aside some time
- Place the pie crust in the center of a cookie pan that has been floured. Spoon the goat cheese mixture into the crust, leaving 1 1/2 inch around the borders. Place the quartered figs on top of the goat cheese and top with rosemary.
- Fold the crust’s edges over every 3 inches to form a rough octagon shape. So that the crust sparkles when it’s cooked, brush the border of the galette with egg white. Preheat the oven to 350°F and bake the crust for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Drizzle honey over the hot galette and serve. I also added a smidgeon of truffle oil to mine to take it to the next level!! Allow for a 20-minute cooling period before serving!
Easy, savory, salty sweet, creamy, and fast are just a few of the adjectives that come to mind when thinking of this dish.
