September 01, 2026

Category: Brunch  |  Ready in 15 minutes  |  Serves 1 adult or 2 kids  |  Naturally gluten-free

What You Need

  • 2 Zavor & Co gluten-free arepas
  • 3 tbsp soft goat cheese
  • 4 fresh figs, halved
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tsp olive oil

How to Make It

  1. Heat the oven to 425F. Toss the figs with the olive oil and roast, cut side up, until soft and jammy, 12 minutes.
  2. Warm the arepas in the toaster on high, 2-3 cycles.
  3. Spread the goat cheese over each arepa.
  4. Top with the warm roasted figs.
  5. Drizzle with honey and scatter with thyme.

About This Recipe

Roasting figs concentrates their sweetness into something almost like jam. Against tangy goat cheese and a little thyme, it's a cheese course you'd find at the end of a French meal — here it's brunch.
