- 1/4 c Warm Water (110 to 115
- -degrees)
- 1/4 c Sugar
- 1/2 ts Salt
- 2 tb Vegetable Oil
- 1/2 c Milk, at room temperature
- 1 Egg
- 1 ts Orange Rind, grated
- 1 c Whole Wheat Flour
- 1 1/2 c Unbleached White Flour

Directions
Soften the yeast in the warm water. Combine the sugar, salt, oil, milk,
egg and orange rind in a large bowl. Beat well. Add the yeast mixture and
the 1 cup of whole wheat flour. Beat. Add the remaining flour. Extra flour
may be needed if the dough is sticky.
Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 5
minutes. Transfer to an oiled bowl, cover with a damp towel and let rise
for 1 hour.
Meanwhile, prepare the fig filling by combining the figs, water and
allspice in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer until
the mixture is thick. Mash the figs with a potato masher or large spoon
during cooking. Cool.
Punch down the dough. Roll into a 1/2-inch thick rectangle 8 inches wide.
Spread with the fig filling. Roll up like a jelly roll. Fit into a lightly
oiled 8-inch-square pan. Seal the edges together. At each corner cut with a
scissors to fit into the shape of the pan. Make two slashes on top of each
side. Let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake in a 350-degree oven
for 20 to 25 minutes. Cool.
May be sprinkled lightly with confectioners' sugar just before serving.
