Clafoutis

It's pronounced kla-FOO-tee. It's a French dessert--but makes a great breakfast too.

I found it in the Friend Magazine. I don't think I've ever tried a single recipe from there, but this one looked really good. My daughter helped me make it. I think it is so tasty.

Clafoutis

4 eggs
2 cups milk or rice milk
1/3 cup flour
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon almond extract or vanilla extract
1/2 cup fresh or frozen fruit of your choice (cherries, blueberries, raspberries, peaches) I used frozen raspberries, blackberries and blueberries.
  • Place eggs, milk, flour, sugar, salt, and extract in a blender. Blend on low speed for about 30 seconds. Pour into a quiche dish or ovenproof glass dish. I used a 8x8 glass dish. Put fruit on top. Cook at 350°F (177°C) for 45 minutes or until clafoutis is not very jiggly.


If you try it let me know what you think.

  1. Sounds good. Reminds me a little of German Pancakes. Does it taste anything like that?

    I thought it would be like German Pancakes because the ingredients are similar but it reminded me more of custard with fruit in it.
