Fig roll

What is "fig roll"?

A fig roll, also known as a fig bar, is a type of pastry that is typically made from a sweet, crumbly dough that is filled with a mixture of figs, sugar, and spices. The dough is rolled out into thin sheets, then the filling is placed in the center and the dough is folded over to encase the filling. The pastry is then baked until golden brown and crispy. Once cooled, the pastry is sliced into individual bars or rounds for serving. Fig rolls are a popular snack or dessert in many countries around the world, and are often enjoyed with a cup of tea or coffee. They can be made with a variety of different fillings, such as dates or other dried fruits, and can be customized to suit different tastes and preferences.
