Ingredients
Gather these lovely ingredients to create your clafoutis masterpiece:
- 1 cup fresh blueberries (you can totally use the frozen ones if you’re feeling lazy)
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch of salt (because life needs a little seasoning)
- Butter for greasing the baking dish
- Powdered sugar for dusting (for that extra touch of elegance)
Instructions
Now, let’s get down to business and put our culinary skills to the test!
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (that’s 175°C for our metric friends). Grease a pie dish or a cast iron skillet with butter because, trust me, you don’t want your delicious creation to stick!
- In a mixing bowl, toss in those glorious eggs and whisk them together until they’re nice and frothy. It’s like a mini workout—bonus points for that!
- Add the milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the eggs and mix until everything is combined. This is where the magic begins!
- Sift in the flour and sugar. Don’t be shy! Stir until you have a smooth batter that’s rich and drippy—just like my friend who can’t stop talking about their latest ‘life journey.’
- Now, fold in your blueberries gently. This is a delicate operation; we don’t want to squash them into a purple goo!
- Pour the batter into your prepared dish and be amazed by how it suddenly looks like a lovely lavender pool of yumminess.
- Place the dish in your preheated oven and bake for about 45 minutes, or until the clafoutis is puffed up and lightly golden. The anticipation is half the fun!
- Once it’s baked, take it out and let it cool for a bit before serving. Dust with powdered sugar for that heavenly touch that makes everything taste better.
Slice it up, serve it warm, and watch everyone oooh and aaah as they dive into this blueberry dream. Enjoy your delightful creation, and remember: dessert is the answer, no matter the question!
