This treat will warm you up from the inside out. The long, slow cooking caramelizes the molasses. So good! I have to be honest, I allowed the kids to eat this for breakfast one morning, even though it is meant to be a dessert. But who needs to be guilty when they are eating their barley and nutrient rich molasses. Throw in the figs optionally, and you really have a whole food dish. I promise your home will smell delicious! Bon apettit, mes amis.
