Plum Almond Clafoutis

Clafoutis is a baked French dessert of fresh fruits, cov­ered with a flan-like-bat­ter. A friend of mine men­tioned that her favorite French dessert was plum almond clafoutis, so I decid­ed to make one. Plum Almond Clafoutis is a won­der­ful way to enjoy fresh plums. The sweet­ness of the almond flour soft­ens the slight acid­i­ty of plums, which makes for a deli­cious com­bi­na­tion of fla­vors.

Utensils

Clafoutis is a very easy dessert to make, that does not require a lot of uten­sils. All you real­ly need is a shal­low bak­ing dish.
