It was only later in my life that I started to experiment with cherries and using them more in more in my recipes, such as cherries marinated in Kirsch to make a Black Forest Trifle or even using them in savory recipes, such as my Chicken Liver paired with cherries and deep fried sage. A dessert that has always fascinated me though, is Cherry Clafoutis....I don't know why, maybe because it is French and I love the French or maybe it is because of the cherries nested in the soft vanilla mattress that I always drooled over pictures of Cherry Clafoutis. Having said that, I have always thought it was difficult to make and boy, was I happy to find out that I was wrong. It is the easiest thing to make and the element of this dish that took up the most time was pipping the cherries(only to read today that the pips should traditionally be left in!!).
My only problem was that I filled the dishes to the top and some of the clafoutis spilled over and I think next time I will bake them in a waterbath! The taste, however was glorious and with a drizzle of cream over the top.....heaven!!!!

I love cherry clafouti! Yours looks so much flakier than mine does. I really miss picking fresh fruit. That eating too much fresh from the tree stomach-ache was the best!
Thanks for the shout out Nina..glad you enjoyed it!
this looks really really good!
Looks gorgeous! I've not yet made a clafouti before. One of these days...
Beautiful, what a great shot.
Julia Child's clafouti seemed to make a big comeback this year. I love it for breakfast.

Wow, this clafouti looks gorgeous...yummie! Your pictures as great :-)
I so love cherry clafoutis! And well, the thing I found out when making clafoutis is that is rises a lot so filling them to the top would definitely have them spill over! I wish it was cherry season here!

Oh Nina, you tease me with your opposite-end growing season and the recipes that come with it. I wish cherries were available now.
