Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh sweet cherries, pitted
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter, for greasing
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Butter a 9-inch round baking dish or a 10-inch cast iron skillet.
- Arrange pitted cherries in a single layer in the prepared dish.
- In a blender or large bowl, combine eggs, sugar, milk, flour, vanilla, and salt. Blend or whisk until smooth batter forms.
- Pour the batter evenly over the cherries.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes until puffed, golden brown, and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Tips
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
- Can substitute frozen cherries (thawed and drained) if fresh are unavailable.
- Clafoutis is best enjoyed the day it's made, but leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
