Best 10 Sweet Cherry Clafouti Recipes

CHERRY CLAFOUTIS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Make the batter: Whisk the eggs, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until combined. Whisk in the salt and flour until smooth. Then whisk in the milk, almond extract, and vanilla extract
• Bake: Bake at 350°F for 35 to 45 minutes or until lightly browned and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Check about halfway through the baking, and if the top is getting well browned, tent it loosely with aluminum foil.
• Remove from the oven to cool: When you pull it out of the oven, it will wiggle a bit, which is normal. Place on a wire rack to cool. The clafoutis will have puffed up quite a bit and will deflate while cooling.
• Dust with powdered sugar: When cool, dust the clafoutis with powdered sugar. Serve.

SOUR CHERRY CLAFOUTIS

Steps:

• Make the crusts: Beat butter and confectioners' sugar with a mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add yolk, and mix until combined. Add flour and 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt; mix until just combined. Press dough into a disk, and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 3 days.
• Set six 4-inch tart rings on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut out six 5 1/2-inch circles, rerolling scraps as needed. Press dough into bottoms and up sides of tart rings, patching any holes or tears. Trim excess dough flush with edges of rings using a knife. Prick bottoms of tart shells all over with a fork, and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Bake until pale gold, pressing down dough if puffing, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
• Make the filling: Raise oven temperature to 375 degrees. Gently whisk together eggs, creme fraiche, granulated sugar, vanilla, and a pinch of table salt. Divide mixture evenly among tart shells, and carefully drop cherry halves, cut sides down, into each. Transfer to oven, and bake until just set, 17 to 19 minutes. Let cool.
