Raspberry Peach Clafouti

A clafouti is a tart made of fruit, baked in a sweet batter. To me, it is more like a pancake or even a crepe because the batter is so thin and puffs up so beautifully when baked. Clafouti sounds so fancy, but it is so easy to make. Layer some fruit, pour the batter, and bake it. I want everyone to try this recipe because I am sure you will love it as much as I do.

Ingredients:  

1 tsp butter (for buttering the dish)

2/3 cup whipping cream

1/3 cup milk

3 eggs

1/3 cup all purpose flour

1/4 cup granulated sugar

2 tbsp butter, melted

1 tsp vanilla

1/8 tsp salt

2 fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced

1 cup fresh raspberries

for garnish:

powdered sugar

shredded fresh basil

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate with the 1 teaspoon butter; set aside. 

In a medium bowl combine whipping cream, milk, eggs, flour, granulated sugar, melted butter, vanilla, and salt. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until smooth. (The batter will be thin.) Arrange peaches and raspberries in the prepared pie plate. Pour cream mixture over fruit.

Bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until puffed and lightly browned. Cool for 15 minutes. Sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar and garnish with basil. Serve warm.
