Great in theory. I think my issue is my figs are really young and not that sweet. But they held up well. Got the bacon crisp by turning them over for an addition minute broiling . but great recipe, because I needed to do something with these figs. thanks

With a bumper crop of figs and a need for only so many jars of jam, this recipe was perfect! Not only was it delicious but so easy to make. I made a huge plate to bring to a casual cocktail party and they were devoured. The goat cheese and bacon played off nicely with the sweetness of the figs and the pecans gave it a really nice crunch.

I had to use dried figs, since I could not find fresh ones in my area. These are very rich and delicious.

This was pretty good. I used dates- will try figs next time. I think I was expecting something a little more savory.

This was just o.k. I absolutely love goat cheese and had higher expectations. They just weren't that special. I did substitute proscuitto for the bacon as many others suggested.

Deeeeelicious. My neighbor gave us fresh figs off his tree and I searched All Recipes to find a recipe to use them. I struck gold with this!! I read all the reviews and decided to try 2 versions. 1 with just goat cheese, the other with a combo goat/ricotta. Stick with just goat! The best. Also I REALLY struggled with cooking the bacon all the way through without demolishing the figs in the cooking process. So I tried pre-cooking the bacon in the micro first, but when wrapped around the figs and broiled the bacon ended up burning. The best solution was to just make a little pile of proscuitto on top of the figs!! No wrapping, no toothpicks, lower fat and not greasy, but very similar taste! I can't wait until next year's fig crop is ripe... and neither can my neighbor! He loved 'em as much as we did!!

My sister-in-law said that they were the most exquiste thing that has ever touched her lips. Excellent recipe. I prepared them the night before and zapped them under the broiler right when the family came. So easy, so good.

I made these this summer for a group of guests who raved about them. They were simple to make, it only took a couple of minutes to assemble a dozen or so. Then I popped them under the broiler for a few minutes and they were done! Very easy, very good.

I used dates instead of figs to make these and served them at a recent party. My friends are still talking about them! I'm not sure if it was just my oven, but I did have to broil them for 10-15 minutes to get the bacon nice and crispy.

I didn't like this as much as the other fig recipe I tried tonight. Too much salt.

this is a unique appetizer and everyone loved it. I accidently got dates instead but they were very good. I 'd make it again because it tastes different - sweet and salty at the same time.

Excellent. I'd make this again. It's quick, easy, and a nice change of pace from the regular appetizers. Best of all, it's delicious!
