CLAFOUTIS AUX CERISES
A clafoutis is a very easy recipe to make. You leave the cherry pits in the fruit, otherwise they will change the colour of the desert. Note: warn your guests so no one eats a pit in error. The great thing about this recipe is you can use other fruit in season such as: apricots, grapes, pears.
