I found the solution, in case anyone else needs it: Add the following to the LaTex Preamble:
\usepackage{tocloft}
## adds the word Figure
\renewcommand{\cftfigpresnum}{Figure }
## adds white space
\renewcommand{\cftfignumwidth}{5em}
##same for tables
\renewcommand{\cfttabpresnum}{Table }
\renewcommand{\cfttabnumwidth}{5em}
