Notes
- You could totally skip the cherries if you're making this at any other time of the year and use another fruit - peaches, blackberries, blueberries... skies the limit!
- Pitting cherries can be time-consuming so I like to use a cherry pitter. It's so easy I can't even complain.
- If your oven is too hot the Cherry Clafoutis can easily overcook and become rubbery. Since all ovens run at slightly different temperatures I’d recommend an internal oven thermometer to ensure your oven is properly heated. They are 4 bucks and an essential tool when baking!
