Clafoutis Blueberries
Clafoutis is a simple, rustic French dessert. It’s a wonderfully comforting cross between a custard and a pancake, with a soft, flan-like texture that bursts with fruity goodness. Whether you choose blueberries, plums, apricots, or of course cherries, clafoutis is a simple yet delicious dessert that brings a little French countryside magic to any table, any time of year.

1. Prepare the batterCrack the eggs into a mixing bowl and beat them until smooth and frothy. This will create a light, airy base for your Clafoutis.Gradually add the flour and sugar to the eggs, stirring steadily to combine into a silky batter without lumps.Mix in the melted butter, baking powder, and a pinch of salt to add depth and a gentle rise to your Clafoutis.Slowly pour in the cold milk, whisking continuously until you achieve a flowing but thick batter. Add a splash more if it feels too dense. 1. Mix the blueberries with the batterScatter a generous handful of fresh (wild) blueberries evenly across the dish, then gently pour the batter over them to cover completely. 1. BakeBake in a moderately heated oven (around 180°C/350°F) for about 35-40 minutes, until the Clafoutis is puffed, golden, and just set in the middle. 1. ServeLet it cool slightly before serving, it’s delightful warm or at room temperature.

If fresh myrtilles aren't available, frozen will work well too, just don’t thaw them completely to avoid sogginess.
-
For a touch of warmth, sprinkle a little cinnamon or vanilla into the batter.
