Clafoutis Recipe with Cherries and Bourbon

This clafoutis recipe has cherries, and a splash of bourbon for a modern take on a classic French dessert. It's the perfect easy dessert for the summer!

Ingredients

  • 12 oz cherries, fresh or frozen, about 3 cups
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 3 eggs, large
  • 1 tbsp Bourbon
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 tbsp confectioners sugar, optional garnish
  • 1/2 cup whipped cream, optional garnish

Equipment

  • Cast Iron Pan

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350° Farenhiet. Pit the fresh cherries or thaw, drain, and dry the frozen cherries well.
  • Combine the milk, heavy whipping cream, eggs, bourbon, and sugar in a small bowl or a blender. Whisk or blend until smooth and frothy.
  • Add in the flour and salt and mix again. Then pour the batter into your GRIZZLY casserole dish and place the cherries inside. You may have to cut the fresh cherries in half if they are too big. Leave the tops peeking out of the batter slightly.
  • Bake for 40-50 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. The clafoutis will puff up in the oven but then deflate once you take it out. Dust with confectioners sugar and serve immediately. 

Notes

Serve the clafoutis as soon as you take it out from the oven for best results.
You can use other fruit like peaches, plums, apricots or even raspberries in place of the cherries in this recipe.
