  1. My pastry chef advised me to use vanilla extract and a tiny drop of amaretto or almond extract. That way it replaces the taste of the pits from the original recipes. Your recipe looks absolutely amazing. I would eat it straight out of the oven!!!!

  2. Try it with plums, when they ar e in season. Make sure the plums are still firm. It's delicious.
    Also, when I make it with cherries, I use almond extract instead of vanilla, to boost the cherry flavor.

  3. As a clafoutis fan, I wanted to make it myself for the first time and tried your recipe with tart cherries. It turned out pretty well, though the egg taste was a bit strong. Thanks for the recipe!

  4. I just popped one in the oven! I tried whisking by hand but couldn't get it smooth so I used the immersion blender. I LOVE cherries and can't wait to dig in!

  5. I've done this only with raspberries so far. (Much easier than cherries and just as delicious!). For those who are turned off by the work involves in the cherries – try berries!

  6. Help! I did this in a tart dish. I filled it to the top, but still had about 1/3 batter left. So I made another smaller bananas Foster version in a round cake pan (all I had were Nanas that needed used). The full cherry one was so brown on the top, and starting to fall back flat after rising, so I had to take it out. However, the center was still jiggly and not cooked through. The banana one, in the bigger pan was thinner and came out cooked beautifully. Should I cover next time, not fill the tart dish to the top rim, or reduce heat and add 10 min???

  7. My stepson has been wanting to make this and yours was the first video to pop up when I googled it. I yelled "Billy the bartender from LongHorn!!! I used to work with this guy!"
    Great video!!! Very helpful! Awesome job!

  8. This is everything but classic. In France, nobody would prior sweeten up the cherries nor finish off the clafoutis with powdered sugar. Besides, there is absolutely no culinary interest in doing it.

  9. Bonjour, some observations: It is absolutely necessary to keep the pits, not for the taste of the almond but so that the juice of the cherry explodes in the mouth during the tasting.
    And we do not coat the cherries with sugar but before baking we sprinkle the preparation with hazelnuts of butter. Take out of the oven and sprinkle with a little sugar (preferably brown sugar).🖐
