This is like pecan pie but lots better. Have never taken it anywhere that I have not been asked for the recipe. In place of the mixed nuts you can use any combination of pecans, walnuts or cashews also.

Uncle Bill's Fig Pie image

It's not too sweet, but really really good. I especially like that little crunch of the fig seeds. My Uncle has a huge fig t'ree, so I found this recipe online somewhere, because Recipezaar didn't really have one. So now I'm posting it here for all of you great chefs...and taking the liberty to name it after the Great Uncle Bill, who spent all afternoon picking them for me.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of nuts: This will give your pie a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include walnuts, pecans, almonds, and pistachios.
  • Toast the nuts before using them: This will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Use fresh figs: If you can't find fresh figs, you can use dried figs, but they won't have as much flavor.
  • Don't overcook the pie: The filling should be bubbly and the crust should be golden brown.
  • Let the pie cool before serving: This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
