Here I would like to show you my traditional Clafoutis Cerises Recipe.

Such a cherry gratin is a great dessert, which you can also bring warm on the table.

Your guests will definitely like it! Clafoutis, that’s the French name, you can prepare with fresh cherries or with canned cherries.

It is important to remember that the cherries must be stoned!

You can also use other fruits such as pears, apricots, berries and strawberries.

But cherries are typical for this fine dessert à la Maman.

I wish you a lot of fun with the preparation and a good appetite!

4. Tips and Variants for Clafoutis aux Cerises

The dough is similar in consistency and preparation to a pancake batter.

Accordingly, the preparations are simple.

Dough variations:

-> Add more or less vanilla sugar or vanilla flavoring.
-> Add orange zest, in addition to lemon or instead of it.
-> A little cinnamon makes the dough more flavorful and the spice harmonizes with the cherry.
-> You can sprinkle roasted almonds or pistachios decoratively before serving.
-> The topping or frosting from the poppy seed cake would be a creamy addition.

A clafoutis, by the way, is a middle ground between a cake and a casserole and originally comes from the Limousin region of France.

Dough ingredient Sift flour before preparing.
