Cherry Clafoutis

Course Dessert

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups fresh dark cherries (or whatever your store has in stock)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 3/4 cups whole milk
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 tsp butter, salted
  • powdered sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Clean the cherries, cut them in half, and remove the pits. Place the cherries in a bowl and coat them with 3 Tablespoons of sugar. Set aside.
  • In a blender, add milk, 1 cup of sugar, flour, salt, vanilla, and eggs until completely combined.
  • Place butter in the tart dish and put the tart dish in the oven for 2-3 minutes until the butter is melted.
  • Next, place the cherries flat in the bottom of the tart pan. Then pour the batter over the top.
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes until lightly browned and the center is firm. You can use a skewer to check that the center is done.
  • Cool slightly, garnish with powdered sugar, and serve warm. (This dessert is traditionally served warm but I enjoy/prefer it cold.)
