Clafoutis (pronounced klah-foo-tee) is a traditional French dish. The dish is traditionally made with cherries (which are usually unpitted) surrounded by a batter made of eggs, milk and sugar which can vary from a thick, almost cake like batter to a custard style.
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees celsius and grease 4 shallow ramekins or baking dishes with butter or oil. Arrange the cherries in the base of the dishes.
Using an electric mixer, whisk eggs, egg yolk and sugar together until pale and thick.
Slowly add the flour, vanilla seeds and milk and whisk until well combined and no lumps remain.
Pour the batter over the cherries and bake in the oven for 20 minutes, or until the puddings are golden and puffed. 5. Serve with freshly whipped cream or ice cream.
