1/2cup granulated sugar, plus 1 tablespoon for greasing
2cups fresh fruit (or 1 1/2 cup dried)
3 eggs
1 1/2cups cream, milk, or a mixture
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4cup flour
Confectioners’ sugar for garnish
Instructions
Heat the oven to 375°F. Butter a baking dish that’s big enough to hold the fruit in one layer and sprinkle it evenly with the tablespoon of sugar. Spread the fruit into the dish.
Beat the eggs, then add the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and continue to beat until foamy and fairly thick. Stir in the cream, vanilla, and salt, then beat in the flour until just combined. (If you like, you can make this in a blender instead.)
Pour the batter over the fruit and bake for about 30 minutes or until the clafoutis is nicely browned on top and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Sift some confectioners’ sugar over it and serve warm or at room temperature.
