Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium fresh peaches or nectarines
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- optional powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish with the unsalted butter.
Slice the peaches or nectarines into thin wedges. Set them aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, and salt until combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until they are frothy. Gradually add the milk and vanilla extract and whisk until smooth.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking constantly to form a smooth batter.
Arrange the peach or nectarine slices in the greased baking dish in a decorative pattern.
Pour the batter evenly over the fruit, making sure it spreads to the edges.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the clafouti is puffed up and golden brown, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. The clafouti will deflate as it cools, which is normal.
Dust the top with powdered sugar before serving, if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
