Servings: 6

Ingredients

Fresh apricots
6-8, halved and pitted
Granulated sugar
1/2 cup
All-purpose flour
1/2 cup
Milk
1 cup
Eggs
3 large
Vanilla extract
1 teaspoon
Salt
1/4 teaspoon
Powdered sugar
for dusting before serving
Unsalted butter
for greasing the baking dish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round baking dish with unsalted butter.
  2. Arrange the halved apricots in a single layer in the greased baking dish, cut side up.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs lightly, then add the milk and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth.
  5. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking continuously until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
  6. Pour the batter evenly over the apricots in the baking dish.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the clafoutis is puffed up, set in the middle, and golden brown on top.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before dusting with powdered sugar.
  9. Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy the delightful flavors!
