Clafoutis is a classic French dessert originating from the Limousin region, blending rich custard with sweet, ripe fruit, traditionally black cherries. The batter, made from eggs, milk, sugar, flour, and sometimes a hint of vanilla or almond essence, is poured over the fruit and baked until golden and slightly puffed. While cherries are the hallmark choice, variations often include berries, peaches, or apples. Nutritionally, Clafoutis offers protein from the eggs and potential vitamins and antioxidants from the fruit. However, its moderate sugar content and refined flour can make it a less optimal choice for those monitoring their carbohydrate intake. Lightening the recipe with less sugar or whole-grain flour can improve its nutritional profile. Best enjoyed as an occasional treat, Clafoutis captures the balance of indulgence and simplicity in French cuisine.
