How to make a berry clafoutis.
Clafoutis
Clafoutis is a light and quick dessert to make that I love.
A clafoutis is a cake made with chopped cherries and covered with a custard-like mixture. It is also often made with plums.
I let my creativity go and used berries. For this recipe, I used frozen fruit.

In this picture, it’s a blueberry almond version. I replaced the vanilla with almond essence and put sliced almonds on top.

That is a classic cherry clafoutis.
Clafoutis is a typical dessert from the Limousin region in France. It can be like flan, as it contains similar ingredients, i.e. eggs, milk and sugar. But, the recipe for the dough of clafoutis differs from that of flan, as it has flour.
It can also resemble far breton, but the recipe is also different.
