Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams fresh cranberries
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 60 grams all-purpose flour
- 240 milliliters whole milk
- 120 milliliters heavy cream
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (for greasing)
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (for dusting)
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Generously grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round baking dish or skillet with unsalted butter.
Spread the fresh cranberries evenly across the bottom of the prepared dish.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, and salt until well combined.
Add the eggs to the dry mixture and whisk vigorously until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Slowly pour in the milk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract, whisking constantly to create a light, smooth batter.
Pour the batter over the cranberries in the baking dish, ensuring even coverage.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the clafouti is puffed and golden, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the clafouti from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. As it cools, it will deflate slightly—this is normal.
Dust the top of the clafouti with powdered sugar just before serving for a decorative and sweet finishing touch.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
