Make a dough from flour, butter, eggs, baking powder, salt, sugar, marjoram, and thyme. Knead until smooth. Wrap in aluminum foil and chill for half an hour. In the meantime, mix the goat’s cheese with the crème fraîche and a splash of milk until smooth. Cut the figs into approximately 1 cm thick slices. Preheat the oven to 180°C.

Then remove from the oven, spread with the cream cheese mixture, and sprinkle with the herbs de Provence. Arrange the figs on top in a shingle-like pattern and bake again at 180°C for about 15-20 minutes. Delicious warm or cold and best served with a glass of red wine.
