In this episode, I’m joined by chef, recipe developer, and food writer Signe Langford to talk about one of those fig recipes that quietly becomes part of your everyday routine: a wholesome, seed-and-nut fig loaf.

Made with dried figs, olive oil, nuts, and seeds, this loaf is dense, sliceable, and full of flavour—perfect for breakfast, snacking, or alongside cheese.


We talk about:

  • Why figs are such a powerful ingredient in the kitchen 
  • How simple, whole-food recipes can still feel indulgent 
  • The role of texture in recipes like this one (and why resting the batter matters) 
  • Flexible substitutions using what you have on hand 

This recipe is part of our ongoing work on a cookbook focused on olives, lemons, and figs—ingredients we keep coming back to for their flavour, versatility, and deep roots in food culture.

You can find the full recipe here.
 

And follow along as we develop the cookbook on Instagram: @oliveslemonsfigs
