Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups (190g) all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup (50g) almond flour
- 1 tsp (5g) baking powder
- 0.5 tsp (3g) salt
- 0.5 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup (80g) honey
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup (120ml) Greek yogurt
- 10 fresh figs, stemmed and quartered
- 1 tbsp (15ml) melted butter
- 1 tbsp (12g) turbinado sugar
- 2 tbsp (30g) honey
- 1 tbsp (15g) melted butter

Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and honey until pale and fluffy (about 3 minutes). Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each, then stir in the vanilla.
- Alternately add the dry ingredients and the Greek yogurt to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the flour. Mix on low speed until just combined.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan using a spatula.
- Arrange the quartered fresh figs on top of the batter, pressing them in slightly.
- Brush the figs with 1 tablespoon of melted butter and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
- Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is warm, whisk together honey and melted butter for the glaze. Brush over the cake and garnish with toasted sliced almonds.
