Stone Fruit Flaugnarde

Clafoutis? Apparently, no.* 

Flaugnarde it is then.

Seriously, whatever you call it, this is delicious. A perfectly unfussy dessert. 

What you do is -

Cut up a few apricot & plums - enough to cover the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle the cut fruit with some cinnamon sugar. Pour the egg, flour & milk batter over the fruit. Bake. Enjoy!

Oh, hmm, that's not enough actual baking instructions?




*The clafoutis comes from the Limousin region of France. It is a baked French dessert of fruit, traditionally black cherries, arranged in a buttered dish and covered with a thick flan-like batter. A traditional Limousin clafoutis contains not only the flesh of the cherries used, but also the nut-like kernels in the stones.

When other kinds of fruit are used instead of cherries, the dish is properly called a flaugnarde- a "baked French dessert with fruit arranged in a buttered dish and covered with a thick flan-like batter. Similar to a clafoutis, which is made with black cherries, a flaugnarde is made with apples, peaches, pears, plums, prunes or other fruits."
