Yes, I think you could - you would just want to cut them in to relatively small pieces and use a similar volume, which may be a different weight but a little more/less won't matter so you can take a guess. The rest of the bread would stay the same. The only things I'd note is to take care as you fold them in, as they are more delicate than dried figs. Also, the flavor may be a little less distinct, or more mixed in to the bread.

i adapted this for bread machine and subbed out 1 cup of all purpose flour for whole wheat flour instead. i was worried because of how small it was but it turned out great!! it's delicious, especially the crust!

Thanks Lisa, I love fresh figs too, but dried work well in this bread. Hope you give it a go!

Thanks for sharing those ideas, Beverly - yes if you need the oven for something else, clearly it's not the best place, but otherwise it works well.

Caroline - this bread looks phenomenal. I just bought some fresh figs for another project, but next time I'm at the store, I'm definitely going to buy some dried for this bread. It's beautiful.

I don't use the oven though. I use a cooler chest or an old Styrofoam chest, with a cup of boiling water beside the loaf. The steam from the water keeps the chest warm and moist enough for the bread to rise successfully. My oven is free to use for something else if necessary.

I sometimes use the inside of my dishwasher after it has run to help bread rise, or the inside of the microwave with a couple of cups of boiled water! Love your warmed oven idea.
