Cherry Clafouti

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups (about 1 pound) sweet cherries

1 1/4 cups milk (I used whole)

1/4 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling

3 large eggs

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

1/2 cup sifted all-purpose flour

Pinch salt

Powdered sugar, for sprinkling

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Butter the bottom and sides of an 8 or 9-inch round or oval gratin dish or pie pan.

2. Rinse, stem and slice cherries in half, remove pits.

3. In a blender or food processor, combine the milk, sugar, eggs, vanilla, salt, flour. Process until blended and smooth, no longer.

4. Place the cherries in the buttered dish. Pour the batter over the cherries. Sprinkle the top with sugar.

5. Bake until the edges are dark golden and a toothpick inserted in the center emerges clean, usually 45 to 55 minutes. The clafouti will fall when it comes out of the oven; cool on a wire rack. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve lukewarm.
