Could I use fig pastry filling in a pie?

I went shopping for some pie fillings and ideas for other pies.. and I got rum mincemeat, pecan and then I got what I thought was fig pie filling. It was fig pastry filling! So, I need these pies for tomorrow, big party, and I need to know if I could use the pastry filling.





And one more thing...


are those three pies, southern?

Reply:Fig pastry filling will just be more dense- but it should be fine. I would make a tart with it though- like a pie with no lid and place a slice of fig on each tart to caremelize.
