Clafouti
Clafouti recipes have been around for centuries and are believed to have originated in the Limousin region of France. The dish is typically made with fresh cherries, but can also be made with other fruit, such as raspberries, blackberries, or apricots.
The word clafouti is thought to come from the Occitan word for cake, which is clafotis. There are many different variations of clafouti, but the traditional version is made with a batter of eggs, milk, flour, sugar, and vanilla extract, which is then poured over fresh cherries that have been dusted with flour. The dish is then baked in a round, shallow dish until the batter is set and the cherries are cooked through.
Clafouti recipes began appearing in French cookbooks in the 19th century, and the dish soon became popular throughout France. Today, clafouti is enjoyed all over the world, and there are many different ways to make it.
