Ingredients
Scale
- 4 eggs
- 120 g of sugar
- 1 packet of vanilla sugar
- 80 g of flour
- 20 g of cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 250 ml of milk
- 30 g of melted butter
- Ripe apricots
Instructions
- Set your oven to 180°C (preferably convection heat) so it’s nice and hot when you place the clafoutis inside.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugar and vanilla sugar until the mixture becomes frothy and slightly pale.
- Sift in the flour, cornstarch, and baking powder. Mix well using a whisk or mixer to avoid lumps.
- Add the cooled melted butter while gently mixing to make the batter smooth.
- Gradually pour in the milk, stirring until you get a smooth, fluid batter that’s similar in texture to thick pancake batter.
- Wash the apricots, dry them, and cut them in half. Remove the pits. If they’re large, you can cut them into quarters.
- Line a round or rectangular cake pan with parchment paper. Place the apricots, cut side up, evenly distributed.
- Gently pour the batter over the apricots, taking care not to disturb them too much.
- Place the pan in the center of the oven and bake for about 40 minutes. The top should be golden, and the center should be slightly wobbly but set.
- Once out of the oven, let it cool to room temperature. The clafoutis can be served warm or cold, depending on your preference.
