Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
3 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/3 cup plus 2 Tbsp. granulated sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups halved and pitted cherries, or pitted and sliced apricots
Powdered sugar (for serving; optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Place butter in a 2-3-qt. shallow baking dish or medium (10") ovenproof skillet. Transfer to preheating oven and heat until butter has melted, about 4-6 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, blend eggs, milk, lemon zest, salt, vanilla, and 1/3 cup granulated sugar in a blender until frothy, about 2 minutes. Add flour and blend just until combined.
  • Pour batter into hot baking dish. Arrange fruit evenly over. Sprinkle with remaining 2 Tbsp. granulated sugar. Bake clafoutis until top is puffed and lightly golden brown, 25-35 minutes. Let cool slightly, then sift powdered sugar over (if using). Serve warm.

I've made this clafoutis several times now and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make and it's always delicious. I love that I can use whatever fruit is in season.

This was a great recipe! I made it with a mix of peaches and blueberries and it was delicious. The custard was creamy and the fruit was perfectly cooked. I will definitely be making this again.

This clafoutis was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more milk or cream next time.

This clafoutis was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.

This clafoutis was a real crowd-pleaser! I brought it to a potluck and it was gone in minutes. Everyone loved the combination of sweet and tart from the plums and the creamy custard filling. I'll definitely be making this again.
