Fig & Goat Cheese Pitas

4 pita breads
1 T olive oil
1 clove garlic, peeled & halved
9 firm ripe fresh figs
6 oz fresh chevre
3 T honey
2 T fresh thyme leaves
salt & pepper

1. Heat oven to 350. Lay pita breads on baking sheets and bake until slightly golden and slightly crisp at the edges, 6 to 8 minutes.

2. While breads are warm, brush with olive oil and rub generously with the cut sides of the garlic clove.

3. Rinse and stem figs. Cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch think wedges. Distribute wedges over breads. Crumble goat cheese over, or spread more as a paste over the pita. Drizzle with honey. Sprinkle with thyme leaves and salt and pepper to taste. Cut into wedges. (pizza cutter useful here).
