Peach Clafoutis
Peach Clafoutis is a classic French dessert that’s easier to make than it looks. This baked custard with fresh peaches is perfect for a summer brunch or a simple weeknight treat. The creamy, slightly sweet batter complements the juicy peaches beautifully, creating a comforting and elegant dessert.
Ingredients
- 4 ripe peaches pitted and sliced
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). While the oven is heating, butter a 9-inch baking dish. Arrange the sliced peaches evenly in the bottom of the prepared dish.
- In a blender or a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. If using a bowl, whisk the dry ingredients together until there are no clumps.
- Pour in the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. If you're using a blender, blend until smooth. If you're using a bowl, whisk until the batter is smooth and well combined. A few small lumps are okay!
- Pour the batter evenly over the peaches in the baking dish. Drizzle the melted butter over the top of the batter. This will help the clafoutis brown nicely.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the clafoutis is puffed up and golden brown. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
- Let the Peach Clafoutis cool slightly before serving. It will deflate a bit as it cools, which is perfectly normal. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired, and enjoy!
