I had a random assortment of fruit that was just a smidge past ripe so I tried making this Clafouti recipe from Julia Childs.
Julia Child's Clafouti Recipe
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Cut up three cups of fruit into bite sized chunks: cherries, plums, pear, etc
- Blend the following in a blender
- 1.25 cups milk
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 3 ggs
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup flour
- In a baking dish (9x9 or 9 inch pie or 7x10), pour a thin layer of batter
- Bake thin layer of batter for 7-10 minutes
- Layer fruit over batter.
- Sprinkle 1/3 cup sugar over fruit
- Pour remaining batter over fruit
- Bake for 40-60 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted
- Serve warm for dessert or breakfast
This is honestly the first recipe I've tried so I'm not sure if it's "the best," but it's pretty delicious and it's easy. I'll have to check out some other recipes and see how they compare.
