Soak the dried figs in water for about 1 hour to soften them. Once softened, remove the tips and drain the excess water.

In a blender or food processor, blend the figs and dates together into a thick, smooth paste. Set aside.

Coarsely chop the mixed dry fruits (cashews, almonds, pistachios).

In a preheated air fryer at 170 deg C, add the nuts and cook for 7-8 minutes. The nuts should turn golden and aromatic.

Add the fig and date paste to the pan with the roasted nuts.

Cook for 8-10 minutes @ 170 deg C, mix them in between the cook.

Transfer the mixture to a tray lined with parchment paper or a baking sheet. Spread it evenly across the tray using a spatula to create a smooth, even layer.

Allow the mixture to set in the fridge for at least 1 hour, until firm.

Once set, cut into bars or squares of your desired size and shape.
