cherry clafoutis ( Clafoutis de cerezas)






Cherry clafoutis is one of the easiest French desserts you can ever make. You can use fresh or frozen pitted cherries .
This baked custard can be served warm or at room temperature.
Delicious for every season.
I love this recipe for evry clafoutis is light and flavorful !


Adapted from   Gimme some oven


Note: Finally, a small note, I would love to publish more often, in fact I always have recipes and photos but sometimes I can't because  I m caring  my mom.

 I do not have time sometimes to do the post, I say this because  some of you  ask me , she is fine until now but sometimes she needs more of my care.
Thanks for all. Anyway Im posting a recipe  once  a week.








Ingredients

4 eggs separated
2/3 cup sugar
6 tablespoon all purpose flour 
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups fresh cherries or frozen pitted cherries
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
powdered sugar (for dusting)



Method 

Preheat the oven to 180°c (375 F) Butter 6 smaller baking dishes or a large rectangular baking dish.

Combine the egg yolks and 1/3 cup sugar in a large bowl. Whisk until  ribbons form and add the flour, vanilla extract and cream. Beat the mixture until completely blended.
In another bowl  beat the egg whites together with the salt until foamy about one minute .
Then add the beaten egg whites into the batter mix lightly until incorporated .

In a medium bowl stir together the cherries, the remaining sugar and the lemon zest.  Pour the cherries sin the smaller baking dishes or the large baking dish. and top with the batter.
Bake until the clafoutis is set in the middle  (about 20 to 25 minutes)

  3. This looks an interesting recipe. We have clafoutis often as we have our own cherry trees but my recipe is totally different. I might just try this out next week and see what the difference really is. Thanks for sharing especially when you are busy and short on time Take care. Diane

    Yours look delicious.

    I do have a lower carb recipe which I use as it doesn't raise husband Eddies blood sugar levels (he is Type 2 diabetic) http://thelowcarbdiabetic.blogspot.co.uk/2016/09/low-carb-berries-fruit-and-almond.html

    Sending my thoughts and good wishes to you and your Mom.

  25. Ah yes, it can be hard to get regular posts out when things get busy! But your clafoutis is beautiful! I had made this with peaches, but I know using cherries is more traditional. I love that you did this in individual sizes. I should try it again with cherries since they are in season now!
