Clafoutis, a French dessert that has a warm custard-like creamy filling with fresh berries. It is quick and easy to make with just a handful of ingredients.
2 tablespoons (28) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
1/2 cup (120ml) whole milk
3/4 cup (180ml) heavy cream*
1 teaspoon (5ml) vanilla extract
2 cups fresh or frozen pitted cherries, berries, or other fruit
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F/175°C. Grease an 8-inch cast iron skillet or pie pan or round baking pan with butter.
In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, and salt for about a minute until well combined. Add flour and whisk until smooth and no lumps remained. Do not over mix. Whisk in melted butter, followed by the milk, heavy cream and vanilla extract Whisk everything together until a smooth batter forms. Pour batter into prepared pan. Scatter fruit onto the batter.
Bake for 35-45 minutes until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. It’s ok if the center is still wobbly as it will set while cooling down. Dust with powdered sugar if you like. Serve it in wedges warm or at room temperature.
Leftovers can be kept in the fridge for 2-3 days.
Notes
*If you want to make it light, use 1 and 1/4 cups of milk instead.
