Instructions
Cut the stems off the figs. Rub the oil over the figs and put them in a baking pan, stem-side up.
Cut a cross in the top of each fig, cutting almost to the bottom.
Drizzle the honey over the figs. Top each one with a piece of the butter.
Bake the figs until they open up like flowers, 8 to 10 minutes.
Remove the pan from the oven.
Put the figs on plates, add the water to the pan, return the pan to the oven for 1 minute, and then stir to make a sauce.
Drizzle the sauce over the warm figs and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side.
Sprinkle one-half cup chopped walnuts or pistachios over the figs after the first seven minutes of cooking.
