This is a classic French recipe, typically made with fresh cherries! Because it is fresh peach season, we swapped the cherries for peaches and it was absolutely delicious!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Rouge de Bordeaux flour
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 4 eggs, room temperature and lightly beaten
- 1 cup milk, room temperature
- 1 cup heavy cream, room temperature
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted + more for greasing the baking dish
- 1.5 lbs ripe but firm peaches, about 3 medium peaches, peeled and sliced into wedges
Directions
Preheat oven to 350F and grease a 2L-capacity baking dish (see notes) with butter. Set aside.
Sift ½ cup flour, ⅛ teaspoon salt and ½ cup sugar into a medium-sized bowl. Set aside.
In another larger bowl, whisk 4 eggs, 1 cup milk, 1 cup cream and 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla until smooth and well incorporated.
Make a well in the centre of your flour mixture and add in the egg mixture a little at a time (I did ¼ cup at a time), stirring by hand and mixing well after each addition. Continue until you've poured all the egg mixture in. Add the 2 tablespoons melted butter and give the mixture a final stir.
Arrange your peach wedges on your baking dish forming a single layer then pour your batter over the peaches.
Bake for 60-75 minutes until the clafoutis is set - golden brown on top, firm but still a little wobbly, and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Enjoy!
