Hmm. The raisins are adding sweetness and a certain deep flavor. Perhaps adding extra sugar and using brown instead of white? Like maybe a tablespoon of brown sugar?
If it's the texture of raisins he doesn't like, he might not mind these because between the chopping and the cooking, they lose that chewiness that I know some people dislike. Or is it something about the flavor?
Fresh black figs might be a good substitute. An interesting thought.
