Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 10x10cm square tin with baking paper, leaving an overhang on two sides.
2
Melt the butter and let cool slightly, then whisk together with the brown sugar and honey until glossy.
3
Beat in the egg, then stir in the orange zest.
4
In a separate bowl, whisk the all-purpose flour, almond flour, cinnamon, baking powder and salt together.
5
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined, then fold through the chopped figs and toasted walnuts.
6
Scrape the batter into the prepared tin and spread level with a spatula.
7
Bake for 22-24 minutes until the top is set and a skewer comes out with a few moist crumbs.
8
Cool in the tin on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before lifting out using the paper overhang.
9
Slice into 2 squares once fully cooled to allow the crumb to firm up.
