Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 Ripe plums
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 3 Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Almond extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish or cast-iron skillet with melted butter.
Wash, pit, and slice the plums into quarters. Arrange them in the greased dish in a single layer, cut side up.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, flour, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, lightly beat the eggs, then mix in the milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and almond extract.
Gradually whisk the wet mixture into the dry mixture until smooth and lump-free to create a pancake-like batter.
Pour the batter evenly over the plums in the prepared dish, ensuring that the fruit is partially submerged.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes, or until the clafouti is puffed, golden, and set in the center. A toothpick inserted should come out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. The clafouti will deflate as it cools, which is normal.
Dust with powdered sugar just before serving. Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled for a refreshing treat.
