You can roast the figs in the oven or air fryer. Preheat the oven to 190 degrees Celsius.
Wash the figs, cut off the stems, and slice the figs in half.

Place the figs cut-side up in a baking dish and sprinkle with cinnamon and cardamom.
Drizzle with honey and roast the figs for about 10 minutes until they start to caramelize.

Meanwhile, chop the walnuts (or pecans) roughly.
Serve the roasted figs with vanilla ice cream and chopped walnuts, enjoy!
Do I need to wash figs?
Figs can be eaten with the skin, it’s best to rinse them gently beforehand. All you need to do is remove the stem, the rest of the fig is edible.
Can you make roasted figs in advance?
Roasted figs are best when warm, and since this is a quick and easy dessert, I wouldn’t recommend making it in advance. However, you can wash and slice the figs ahead of time.
