Caramelised apple clafoutis
Clafoutis is originally from the Limousin region of central France where, in the local dialect, it translates as “brimming over”. It is one of the easiest desserts to make: a sweet batter is poured into a baking dish “brimming” with cherries, prunes or the fresh fruit of your choice, and baked. Traditionally, cherries native to the region were used.

Cherry clafoutis
Some traditional clafoutis recipes call for non-pitted cherries; they are said to release a subtle flavour. We hate to disappoint your dentist, but suggest you use the pitted kind.
