How to Make Almond Riesling Savarin With Fig Compote
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch savarin mold.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and almond extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, and Riesling.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared savarin mold.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the savarin cool in the mold for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the savarin is cooling, prepare the fig compote: Combine the figs, sugar, and water in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the figs are softened and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Remove from heat and let cool.
- Once the savarin is completely cool, drizzle the Riesling syrup over it.
- Spoon the fig compote over the savarin and serve immediately or chill for later.
- Garnish with fresh figs and toasted almonds (optional).
