Perfectly balancing sweet and savory, this recipe for Olive Oil and Thyme Cake with Fresh Figs from Food & Wine Magazine is a subtle way to sweeten up a springtime evening. The moist cake, flavored with lemony thyme, gets extra freshness from figs flavored with a black pepper and thyme infused syrup. Topped with a healthy dollop of creme fraiche and a few extra sprigs of fresh thyme, this dessert will become a spring favorite.
