Plum Clafoutis



This recipe is fantastic, especially for Spring. A yummy dessert that is just not hard to make. I had been meaning to do it for many many years but always felt I wasn't prepared because it called for "semolina" which I had no idea what that was. But here is a recipe 
with normal ingredients. Thanks to Courtney Adamo.   

INGREDIENTS:
-400 ml of heavy cream (1+1/2 cups) 
-150 grams granulated sugar (even 140 grams, 
the original recipe calls for 175 grams, too much I think)
-3 eggs.
-2 tsp vanilla.
-the orange zest of 1 orange.
-1/4 tsp salt.
-1/2 cup flour.
-3 big plums cut in slices (or figs, or peaches, or cherries).

STEPS:
1. Combine cream, sugar, eggs, vanilla, orange zest and salt in a blender. 
2. Add flour in 3 batches, mixing slowly with hand blender.
3. Let the mix rest for 30 minutes.
4. Turn oven on to 220 degrees and prepare the fruit in pieces. 
5. Butter your dish, you have to for this recipe, I always use kitchen paper, but you cannot with this recipe. And then sprinkle the bottom with sugar, so that it caramelizes a bit.
6. Get your dish and pour the mix and now add the fruit, slowly in a pretty manner.
7. Sprinkle a little more sugar on top.
8. Place in oven in 220 degrees for 2o minutes. Then lower to 180 for 20 more, and then turn the girll on at the end to give it a tanning session. You'll know when it's ready.

Great recipe. Obviously has a ton of cream and sugar so you'll have to plan your next run and work out soon after, but it's worth it. A few pics of Byron Bay where Courtney Adamo lives.
