Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 c. (10 1/2 ounces) dry figs diced
  • 1/2 c. (4 Ounces) Hot Water (85-90F)
  • 2 2/3 c. (12 ounces) unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1 2/3 c. (6 1/2 ounces) cake flour
  • 1 3/4 c. (5 1/4 ounces) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 2 Tbsp. baking pwdr
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1 1/3 c. (11 ounces) maple syrup
  • 1 1/3 c. (11 ounces) lowfat milk
  • 4 lrg Large eggs lightly beaten
  • 2 lrg egg yolks
  • 3/4 c. (6 ounces) canola oil
  • 2 c. (8 ounces) walnut pcs toasted Additional maple syrup for glazing

Directions

  1. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 F.
  2. Put the diced figs in a medium bowl and add in the hot water. Let soak till softened.
  3. Whisk the unbleached flour, cake flour, oats, baking pwdr, and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.
  4. Put the maple syrup, lowfat milk, Large eggs, egg yolks, and canola oil in a medium bowl and stir with the whisk to combine. Add in the mix to the dry ingredients, stirring with a spoon just till all the flour is moistened. This should be a wet batter, because the oats absorb a lot of the liquid during baking.
  5. Fold the walnuts and figs into the batter (the figs don't need to be liquid removed). Divide the batter proportionately between two oiled 9- by 5-inch loaf pans. Bake for about 1 hour, till a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. (If your oven bakes unevenly, rotate the pans from left to right and front to back about halfway through the baking time.)
  6. Remove the pans from the oven and use a pastry brush to glaze the tops of the loaves with maple syrup. Set them on a rack to cold for about 10 min. Turn the loaves out of the pans and set them on the rack to cold completely before serving. Wrap any leftovers tightly in plastic wrap and store at room temperature. They may also be frzn, wrapped first in aluminum foil and then in plastic wrap or possibly a heavy-duty freezer bag.
  7. Yield: 2 (9- by 5-inch) loaves
