Clafoutis (French pronunciation: [klafuti]; Occitan: clafotís [klafuˈtis] or [kʎafuˈtiː]), sometimes in Anglophonic countries spelled clafouti, is a baked French dessert of fruit, traditionally black cherries,[1] arranged in a buttered dish and covered with a thick flan-like batter. The clafoutis is dusted with powdered sugar and served lukewarm, sometimes with cream.
I start by playing some music, music just given to me by a friend the night before. Sadly she won't benefit from the results. But perhaps next time - when I have returned.
Next I drain 2 cans of cherries (dark & sweet) and place them in a buttered pie dish.
I mix the ingredients that will make the custard. Eggs, butter, milk, sugar & flour.
Pour the mixture over the cherries.
Put the dish in a preheated oven at 400 degrees.
Set the timer for 40 minutes,
And do the dishes!
After 40 minutes the baked custard is a rich dark golden brown.
Aren't my kids lucky!!!
