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.

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Rinse the plums. Cut them in half and remove the pits. Turn them around (skin up), and slice thin slices. (See picture).
