Before telling you about each of the organic fig bars, we will briefly review the main fruit "the dried fig El Pajarero" and why it is good for your health.

Why should you eat dried figs?

El Pajarero dried figs contain a series of minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium and iron, as well as vitamin A, C, E and K. 

They are rich in fibre, antioxidants and essential nutrients such as calcium, iron and magnesium. Eating dried figs can improve digestion, prevent cardiovascular disease, strengthen bones, improve blood circulation and help control blood sugar levels. In addition, their natural sweet taste makes them a healthy and delicious option to satisfy your appetite.

Now let's take a look at each of them.

Benefits of Dried Fig & Cranberry Bars

Dried Fig & Cranberry Sticks are the perfect choice for those looking for a delicious and healthy snack. They are made with dried figs, cranberries, lemon and pumpkin seeds. Dried figs are rich in fibre and antioxidants, which makes them a very beneficial food for your digestion. Blueberries, meanwhile, are a powerful antioxidant and contain a high amount of vitamin C, which helps boost the immune system. Pumpkin seeds, meanwhile, are an excellent source of protein and healthy fats, and the lemon adds a tangy, fresh twist, making your bars even more appetising.

They are also ideal for those who love sweet snacks but don't want all the added sugar. They are rich in antioxidants thanks to both blueberries and figs, which help protect your body from external agents such as pollution or stress. You can enjoy them on their own or with a cup of tea or coffee - they're sure to satisfy any sweet tooth! 

Benefits of Dried Fig & Orange Bars 

Dried Fig & Orange Sticks are an ideal choice for those who prefer a sweeter, milder taste. In addition to being organic and with no added sugar, these bars contain dried figs, sultanas, orange and cinnamon. Dried figs are rich in calcium and iron, making them an excellent source of energy for the body. Sultanas are an excellent source of fibre, antioxidants and iron. Oranges, besides being a delicious fruit, contain a large amount of vitamin C, which helps boost the immune system. And cinnamon, as well as adding a warm, spicy flavour to the mix, is also known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

The combination of oranges with our delicious El Pajarero dried figs provides sustained energy thanks to their balanced sugar content, making them great for athletes who need an extra boost during training sessions or competitions. They are also suitable for vegans, so everyone can enjoy them!

Father's Day is a special day to show dad how much he means to us. And what better way to do that than by preparing a delicious treat together? With this special recipe for wholemeal and dried fig muffins, we're sure you'll surprise him. 

All you need are a few simple ingredients, a little family bonding time and you'll have the perfect recipe for a memorable Father's Day. Let's bake!

It all starts with a few ingredients. You'll need:

• 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour 
   
• 1/2 cup dried figs El Pajarero, finely diced
   
• 1/2 cup brown sugar (optional)
   
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 
   
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 
   
• 1/2 teaspoon salt, 
   
• 1/2 cup milk, 
   
• 1 egg and 
   
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil. 

After gathering these ingredients, your family can join in the fun!

Kids will have fun measuring each ingredient while mum, or the older ones in the house, crack the egg into the bowl. Teenagers can learn how to use a mixer to blend all the ingredients into a smooth batter.

And don't forget our secret ingredient: dried figs! Cut them into small cubes and add them to the dough to give it an extra touch of sweetness that everyone will love.

Now let's go through the step-by-step:

• Preheat the oven to 200°C.
   
• In a large bowl, mix together the wholemeal flour, brown sugar, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder and salt.
   
• In another bowl, mix the milk, egg and vegetable oil.
   
• Add the liquid mixture to the dry mixture and mix until combined.
   
• Add the dried figs to the batter mixture and mix well.
   
• Spoon the mixture into muffin shells and fill them 3/4 full.
   
• Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a fork inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean.
   
• Allow muffins to cool before serving.

A couple of tips

The brown sugar is optional, as you will add the sweetness with the dried figs, and even more if you add jam :)

Make sure you leave enough room in each muffin tin for the muffins to rise well during baking. Put them in the oven and wait for them to brown (about 20 minutes). Now comes the hard part: let them cool before eating them!

If you wish, you can accompany them with jams, in our blog we have left you the recipe for homemade fig jam, which will combine very well with these delicious muffins.

It will be an experience that none of you will forget. So take advantage of this great opportunity to bond while you all together prepare these special treats for a nice snack, or why not, to surprise him during breakfast.

There is nothing more satisfying than preparing something together with so much love! 

 Happy Father's Day and enjoy!
