2. Drain the brandy from the figs, retaining the liquid.
3. Place all ingredients including the Calvados into the pan, except the figs, by following your manufacturers’ instructions regarding the order of liquid/dry ingredients.
4. Place the figs in the nut/raisin dispenser (if available) and set your machine to the basic/normal raisin setting, medium loaf, light crust. If you do not have a nut/raisin dispenser when the machine indicates (with a beeping sound), add the figs and close the lid.
