Mixed Berries Clafoutis

Clafoutis …there is so many recipes online, I have tried many and this one is my favorite. Because the custard tastes like a pudding, and it’s not a big deal to make in the morning, which was perfect because we wanted to go to Laguna Beach. And I have learned my lessons to never evaaaaaaar get out of the house without giving my better half a proper breakie. Without coffee his brain is on stand by mode and we don’t want any of that on the roads do we? So I made this Clafoutis, tones of coffee, and then we drove to Laguna. Wow …it is beautiful; it was such a fun day. Later strolling the little stores and Art Galleries what a cute place. The end of the day we went to this place called “the Cliff” To have some drinks and a bite. It’s in front of the ocean, sooooooo pretty with the sunset. Lovely day.

Mixed Berries Clafoutis

Ingredients:

  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1-cup flour
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • ½ pint of blueberry
  • ½ pint of raspberry

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an oval ovenproof dish about 13 inches long. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and 1 cup of the sugar. Stir in the flour. Whisk in the milk to form a smooth batter. Place the blueberries and raspberries in the ovenproof dish. Pour the batter over the berries and place in the oven. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until it is sponge like. Remove from the oven and cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serve the clafoutis warm. Garnish with powdered sugar.

Anna, you commented about passion fruit the other day (on my blog) – I feel the same way about those berries! I wish we had them in abundance here too.
Lovely clafoutis – looks so delicious!

Love the milk bottle in the pics! Did you use whole milk? I’m guessing a low fat substitute wouldn’t make a nice of a texture…
I have to admit I’ve never made clafoutis, but I’m intrigued! Totally understand about feeding the husband! :)

Have you tried a bit of thyme thrown in with the berries. It really makes a blackberry/peach clafoutis tasty!

Thanks Eliot, that sounds great, will try next time. :-)

Oh that looks so tasty. I adore people that bake, I always cooked and love cooking but I barely ever bake. That’s probably because of my mom, every time she tried to bake a cake she failed even though she was a great cook. So obviously I took out from my home belief that baking = mission impossible. I’m just learning to bake right now and I find it really rewarding although I have my failures every now and then.

Oh Magda, you wouldn’t believe the amount of failures I have baking. It’s frustrating. But I get obsessed with things and I don’t stop trying until I get it right. LOL
