  1. In a small bowl, soak the chopped figs in warm water to soften them for about 10 minutes.
  2. Combine tahini, coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla and cacao in a small saucepan on low heat. Continue to stir until all of the ingredients have formed a smooth runny liquid. 
  3. Blend or mash the figs with a fork until they form a paste and add them to a bowl with the buckwheat, coconut and a pinch of salt. Add the cacao liquid and stir well to combine.
  4. Line a loaf tin with baking paper and press the mixture firmly into the tin. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and coconut
    Set in the fridge for 1-2 hours.
