Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 400–425°F (200–220°C).
2

Brush the bread slices lightly with extra virgin olive oil.
3

Remove the stems and peel from the figs.
4

Open the figs and place one opened fig on each slice of bread.
5

Sprinkle a few tablespoons of brown sugar over the figs.
6

Bake on the top rack and let the figs caramelize slightly for about 20 minutes. Watch carefully so the figs don't lose too much moisture.
7

Once baked, cut the Toma cheese into thin slices and place the cheese on top of the caramelized figs.
8

Add the washed and dried arugula on top.
9

Season the arugula with a pinch of salt and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Serve.
