Method
Heat the oven to 200ºC/180ºC fan/gas 6. In a small food processor, whizz the fig rolls into a coarse crumble texture. Add in the flour, sugar and butter, then pulse into a rubble, leaving some of the butter in larger chunks.
Set aside one of the figs for garnish and halve the rest, trimming the stalks if needed. Put in a snug-fitting baking tray, squeeze over the lemon juice and sprinkle over the sugar, then give a little stir, ensuring the figs are all sitting cut-side up.
Sprinkle over the crumble mixture, then put in the oven and bake for 20 minutes.
Divide among bowls and top with a spoon of mascarpone. Slice the remaining fig, put a slice on top of the mascarpone, then drizzle over the beautiful pink juices left in the tray and serve.
