BLACKBERRY CLAFOUTIS

in ,

Creamy and melts in your mouth, the BLACKBERRY CLAFOUTIS is a unique dessert in taste and texture, a recipe for a creamy cake that is easy and quick to make without butter but with plenty of fresh milk and only eggs, sugar, flour, and lots and lots of ripe and juicy blackberries. Clafoutis is a typical recipe from French pastry, the original recipe involves making clafoutis with cherries, but the other variations are also delicious, such as strawberry and peach, which you can find on my blog, but also raspberry, apricot, etc. It is certainly a dessert that we can make all year round by personalizing it with fresh seasonal fruit. I loved the blackberry clafoutis so much, I’ve already been asked for an encore at home, and I plan to make this delicious cake again soon! I served the clafoutis with a dusting of powdered sugar, but if you want, you can serve it with a scoop of ice cream or dollops of fresh cream. I’m sure that both adults and children will love this creamy cake with blackberries.
