Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round baking dish.
2. Spread pitted cherries evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
3. In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt, whisking to mix well.
4. In another bowl, crack the eggs and beat lightly. Add the milk and vanilla extract to the eggs, stirring until fully incorporated.
5. Gradually pour the wet mixture into the bowl with dry ingredients. Whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
6. Pour the batter over the cherries in the baking dish, ensuring the fruit is evenly covered.
7. Bake the clafoutis in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes. It's ready when the top is golden brown and the custard set.
8. Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool down for a few minutes.
9. Just before serving, sprinkle a generous dusting of powdered sugar over the top of the clafoutis.
10. Serve your clafoutis warm or at room temperature, and enjoy the taste of this traditional French dessert!
