Puree with on/off turns. Transfer to a medium saucepan. Add the water, honey and cinnamon. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, for 8 minutes, or until the mixture thickens. Remove from the heat. Place the flour, oat bran, brown sugar and salt (if using) in a food processor. Mix with on/off turns. Drizzle with the oil and dot with the margarine or butter. Mix well with on/off turns. Press half the mixture into the prepared pan. Spoon dollops of the fig mixture evenly over the crust; use the back of a spoon to spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining crust mixture evenly over the top and spread it out with the back of a spoon. Press it lightly into place. Bake at 400 degrees F for 22 to 26 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cut while still warm. Serves 24. on Mar 19, 1998
