Slice the goat's cheese, and then divide between the centres of the figs. Bake for 10-15 minutes.

My method as I was cooking only one fig.
Cooking Time five minutes or depending on your oven.

1. One tablespoon of balsamic vinegar and two tablespoon of extra virgin oil. Add a pinch of salt and beat well. Set aside.
2. I was unable to find goat's cheese thus substituted for Camembert. One thick slice over each piece of fig.
3. It takes less then five minutes for the cheese to melt.
