Get ready to enjoy a custardy, fruit-filled treat that’s as easy to make as it is delicious—perfect for dessert or brunch!

Clafoutis (pronounced "kla-foo-tee") is a classic French dessert that combines a creamy custard base with juicy fruit.

Ingredients

2 cups fresh blueberries 3 large eggs 1 cup milk (or almond milk) 1/3 cup honey (or sugar) 1 cup almond flour 1/4 tsp salt 1 tsp vanilla extract 1/2 tsp almond extract (optional) Butter for greasing Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Preparation - Part 1

- Preheat your oven to 350°F. - Grease a 10-inch cast-iron skillet or pie dish with butter. - Rinse and pat dry the blueberries, then spread them evenly in the dish.

Preparation - Part 2

- In a blender, mix eggs, milk, honey, vanilla extract, and almond extract until smooth. - Add almond flour and salt, blending until no lumps remain.

Assembly

- Pour a thin layer of batter (about 3/4 cup) into the dish over the blueberries. - Bake for 10 minutes until slightly set—this prevents the berries from sinking. - Pour the rest of the batter over the blueberries and smooth the top.

Baking

- Bake for 30-40 minutes, until the top is golden and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. - It’ll puff up in the oven and settle as it cools—totally normal!

Serving Suggestions

- Serve it warm or at room temperature: - Dust with powdered sugar for a pretty finish. - Add whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for a decadent touch. - Perfect for dessert or a cozy breakfast!

Variations

- Try raspberries, blackberries, or cherries instead of blueberries. - Add a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom for a flavor boost. - Go dairy-free with almond milk and vegan butter.

Conclusion

This Blueberry Almond Clafoutis is an easy, elegant treat you’ll love making.
