Although originally a cherry dessert (
Clafoutis), this recipe lends itself to be adapted with great many seasonal fruits. Blueberries, strawberries, figs, apples, pears and more are all suitable and often used.
It is also one of those desserts that can be quickly done up when unexpectedly relatives or friends announce themselves for an afternoon visit. The ingredients are simple and all available in a regular stocked pantry and some kind of fruits is always around the house. Freshly baked, served warm with a good scoop of ice cream this dessert “hits the spot” all the time.
