These scrumptious fig crumble bars couldn’t be any easier to make. A golden brown oatmeal crumb surrounds the sweet fig filling and the best part is, they keep for up to 4 days in an airtight container and they also freeze really well so you can bake them well ahead of time. This gorgeous recipe was created by Shane Smith, Gem Brand ambassador.
