1
Prepare the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Flip occasionally for even cooking. Once cooked, remove from skillet and drain on paper towels.
2
Prepare the Jalapeño
If not already roasted, roast the jalapeño over an open flame or in a broiler until the skin is charred. Let it cool, then remove the skin, seeds, and slice it into thin rings.

3
Spread the Peanut Butter and Fig Spread
Take one slice of bread and spread the peanut butter evenly over it. On the other slice, spread the fig spread evenly.
4
Add Cheddar and Bacon
Layer the cheddar cheese slices on top of the peanut butter and add the crispy bacon slices on top of the cheddar.
5
Add Roasted Jalapeño
Place the sliced roasted jalapeño on top of the bacon layer.
6
Finish the Sandwich
Top with the second slice of bread with fig spread facing down. Press gently to combine all ingredients.

7
Toast the Sandwich
In the same skillet used for bacon, add a little butter or oil over medium heat. Place the sandwich in the skillet and toast for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese begins to melt.
