• All-Purpose Flour (2 1/4 Cups)

• Orange Fig Spread

• Grass-Fed Butter (1 1/4 Sticks, Unsalted and Soft)

• Brown Sugar (1/2 Cup)

• Baking Soda (1/2 and 1/8 Teaspoons)

• Sea Salt (1/8 Teaspoon)

• Cinnamon (1/4 Teaspoon)

• Honey (2 Tablespoons)

• Orange Zest (1 Teaspoon)

• Freshly Squeezed Orange Juice from One Orange (1 Tablespoon)

• Eggs (3 Egg Yolks)

STEPS:

• Prepare the Dough:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine softened grass-fed butter, light brown sugar, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, honey, and orange zest.

  • Mix by hand or with a stand mixer on low speed until moistened, then increase to medium speed until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.

  • Add freshly squeezed orange juice and egg yolks one at a time, beating until smooth.

  • Sprinkle in the unbleached all-purpose flour and mix well until combined.

• Shape and Chill the Dough:

  • Knead the dough in the bowl until it forms a smooth ball.

  • Shape the dough into a square, wrap it in cling wrap, and refrigerate for an hour or up to a week.

• Roll Out the Dough:

  • Bring the dough to room temperature for 20 minutes, then knead until smooth and easy to work with.

  • Dust with flour and roll out into an 8-inch square. Sprinkle both sides with flour and roll into a 15-inch square.

  • Cut into three 3 1/4-inch strips.

• Assemble the Bars:

  • Pipe or use a Ziplock bag to create a 1-inch wide strip of Divina Orange Fig Spread down the center of each dough strip.

  • Fold a long flap of dough over each strip, brush off excess flour, and roll each bar over with the seam side down.

  • Gently flatten each bar with your fingertips and transfer to a parchment-lined half sheet pan.

• Bake:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.

  • Bake the bars until they are puffed and firm without significant browning, approximately 11 minutes.

  • Immediately cut into about 1-inch pieces and store in an airtight container.

• Enjoy:

  • Indulge in the deliciousness of homemade Orange Fig Newton Bars as a snack or dessert.
