Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
Step 2
Combine flour and baking powder in a bowl.
Step 3
Combine butter, brown sugar, and white sugar in a separate bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in 6 egg whites, one at a time. Stir in chocolate chips and vanilla extract. Stir in the flour mixture with a wooden spoon until smooth. Stir in figs with the wooden spoon.
Step 4
Divide the dough in two. Shape each half into a loaf about 12 inches long and 2 inches wide. Place the loaves 4 inches apart on the baking sheet; flatten tops slightly with your hand. Beat remaining egg white until foamy and brush over the tops. Lightly sprinkle cinnamon on the loaves after brushing on the egg white.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until light brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool, about 30 minutes.
Step 6
Lower oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Step 7
Cut the baked loaves into 1/2-inch-thick diagonal slices using a serrated knife. Lay slices cut-side down on a baking sheet.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven until browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
