RASPBERRY CLAFOUTIS RECIPE
Melissa Clark's clafouti recipe is a light and custardy baked dessert (like a baked pancake) with juicy raspberries and a hint of lavender. This elegant dessert is a few steps above your homey cobbler or crisp, but it couldn't be easier to make. Perfect for dessert or brunch!

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch ceramic baking dish, or a 2-quart gratin dish, or a 9-inch cake pan.
- In a medium bowl, toss the raspberries with 1 tbsp sugar. Let them sit while you prepare the remaining ingredients
- In a food processor or blender, combine the remaining ½ cup sugar with the lavender; process until the lavender is mostly ground, about 2 minutes. Then pour the milk, crème fraiche, eggs, and salt, and process to combine. Add the flour and pulse just to combine.
- Arrange the sugared berries in the prepared baking dish, then pour the egg mixture over them. Bake until the cake is golden and the center springs back when lightly touched, about 35 minutes.
- Transfer the baking dish to a wire rack and let the cake cook for at least 15 minutes before serving. Then dust it with confectioners' sugar, slice it, and serve it with a dollop of whipped crème fraiche if you like (I used Greek yogurt to serve along).

MISSION FIG CLAFOUTI
Clafouti is a country French baked pudding, versatile enough to serve for breakfast, brunch, tea or dinner, and suited to a wide variety of fruits. Figs, cherries and other stone fruits work well, and I've also made savory clafoutis with fresh corn and mushrooms. I think it's charming to cook and serve this from a cast-iron pan - especially mini pans that make individual servings - but you can use decorative porcelain pie pans, individual gratin dishes or any skillet providing it is not nonstick. Clafouti tastes and looks best served directly from the oven, while it's puffy and light. It can also be served at room temperature, but it will settle in the pan as it cools. Michael's notes: If you plan to serve individual clafoutis from mini pans, heat the pans in the oven until quite hot, about five minutes, then divide the cooked fruit among the pans, top with the batter and bake. Cooking time will vary depending on the size of the pans. To make a cherry clafouti, use 1 1/4 cups pitted cherries. Substitute 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest for the cinnamon and Grand Marnier for the grappa.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Make the batter: Sift the flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon and salt into a bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, egg yolk, and milk until well blended. Add about 1/3of the egg mixture to the flour mixture and whisk to form a paste, then gradually incorporate the remaining egg mixture. Whisk until well blended.
- Cook the figs: With the tip of a knife, scrape the vanilla bean seeds from the pod into an ovenproof 10-inch cast iron or stainless steel skillet. Add the pod and the butter and cook over moderately high heat until the butter turns nut brown. Add the figs and cook, stirring often, for about 1 minute to soften them. Remove the vanilla bean pod and discard. Sprinkle the figs with the granulated sugar, reduce the heat to moderately low, and cook until the the sugar has melted and is coating the figs in a light syrup. Add the grappa or other brandy, swirl the pan briefly, then spread the fruit evenly in the pan.
- Remove the pan from the heat. Working quickly, pour the batter through a sieve evenly over the fruit. Bake until the edges of the clafouti are puffed and browned and the center is set, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven.
- Put some confectioners' sugar in a sieve and generously dust the surface of the clafouti. Serve warm directly from the pan with a dollop of creme fraiche.
BERRY CLAFOUTI WITH CREME FRAICHE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Whisk together the eggs and sugar until frothy. Add vanilla specks, flour, and salt. Mix until incorporated. Fold in the milk and 1/2 the creme fraiche.
- Spray a 10-inch Teflon pan with vegetable spray. Pour 1/3 of the batter into the pan. Bake in the oven for 3 minutes, just until the batter sets. Remove pan from oven and spread the mixed berries on as the next layer. Pour remaining batter over the berries. Return the pan to the oven and continue baking for 12 to 16 minutes, or until the edges start to brown and the middle rises. Take out and let cool for 20 minutes.
- Mix the remaining 1/3 cup of creme fraiche with the confectioners' sugar. Cut the clafouti into 4 to 6 wedges, dust with the extra confectioners' sugar and serve with the remaining berries and sweetened creme fraiche.
