Notes
- Chef Notes:
- Make-Ahead: You can make this up to 1 day in advance and you can either serve it cold or warmed, just reheat slightly before serving.
- How to Reheat: Since this recipe is classically eaten warmed, wrap the clafoutis in foil and bake at 350° for 6-8 minutes or until just warm.
- How to Store: Cover with plastic and keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This does not freeze well.
- You do not have to toss the cherries in sugar if they are sweet enough, however, if they are on the tart side then it is recommended.
- If you wanted to greatly enhance the flavor of this recipe you could sub the vanilla extract for vanilla bean seeds.
- You can bake this in a glass or ceramic coated tart dish, a cast-iron skillet, or a casserole-style dish.
- Make sure while whisking the batter that it is completely smooth. If you can’t get it this way blend in the blender for 20 seconds on high speed.
