Fig roll

The fig roll or fig bar is a biscuit or cookie consisting of a rolled cake or pastry filled with fig paste. Figs have been a popular food since ancient times, originating in the areas of the Mediterranean and Asia Minor. Early Egyptians may have invented the first fig roll—a simple pastry made with fig paste and a flour-based dough. In the Middle Ages, the arab physician Ibn Butlan is recorded to have recommended eating figs with biscuits, or sugared bread—an early instance of what could be considered a fig roll.
