Ingredients

• 1 cup pitted cherries
• 1 cup blueberries
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
• Pinch of salt
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (for greasing the baking dish)
• Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

1. Preparation:
   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
   • Grease a 9-inch pie dish or a similar baking dish with the unsalted butter.
2. Prepare the Fruit:
   • Evenly spread the pitted cherries and blueberries over the bottom of the greased baking dish.
3. Make the Batter:
   • In a blender or mixing bowl, combine the eggs, milk, granulated sugar, flour, vanilla extract, almond extract (if using), and a pinch of salt.
   • Blend or whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
4. Combine and Bake:
   • Pour the batter over the cherries and blueberries in the baking dish, making sure the fruit is evenly distributed.
   • Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the clafoutis is puffed and golden brown around the edges and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. Cooling and Serving:
   • Remove the clafoutis from the oven and let it cool slightly. It will deflate as it cools.
   • Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
6. Serve:
   • Serve the clafoutis warm or at room temperature. It can be enjoyed on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
