Ricotta Fig Crumb Cake

A tad refined and a touch rustic, this crumb cake is a special, yet simple and satisfying, start to any day. Coffee or a chai tea latte is the perfect accompaniment to this not-too-sweet morning confection. Vegan buttermilk and Tofutti Better Than Ricotta Cheese lend a tangy tenderness to this moist cake while fresh fruit guilds the lily. Prepare your version with coriander or cinnamon, though coriander is our choice for its subtle lemony notes. And while figs and pistachios have enjoyed a long and happy marriage in the Middle East, if another nut is more to your liking, by all means substitute your favorite.

If you use pasta rather than spiralized vegetable “noodles,” this recipe requires two dishes, but who’s counting? It will be worth it regardless.

Baking the biscuits separately and arranging them on top of the filling before serving insures crusty bottoms. Sound labor intensive? Not necessarily! If you choose, you can make this warm and comforting dish in a flash with canned biscuits, frozen vegetables, and canned potatoes. Your secret will be safe.
