Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Fresh strawberries
- 60 milliliters Brandy
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 75 grams All-purpose flour
- 250 milliliters Milk
- 60 milliliters Heavy cream
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
- 10 grams Unsalted butter (for greasing)
- 10 grams Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease a 9-inch round baking dish with the unsalted butter.
Wash the strawberries, pat them dry, and hull them. Cut larger strawberries in half, leaving smaller ones whole.
Place the strawberries in a bowl and pour the brandy over them. Let them macerate for 10 minutes, tossing occasionally.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and all-purpose flour until well combined.
Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, whisking vigorously to create a smooth batter.
Slowly pour in the milk and heavy cream while continuing to whisk. Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Mix until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Drain the strawberries, reserving the brandy. Spread the strawberries evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Pour the batter over the strawberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the clafoutis is puffed, golden brown, and set in the center. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 10–15 minutes. The clafoutis will deflate slightly as it cools.
Dust the top with powdered sugar before serving. Optionally, drizzle reserved brandy over the clafoutis for an extra burst of flavor.
