I’m a big fan of fruit desserts, especially in the summer. I’m always looking for new ideas and recipes with fruit, especially those that include blueberries and strawberries.
Clafoutis is a typical French summer dessert, a type of baked custard. This recipe, however, is special, I’m not exaggerating when I say that you will fall in love with it after the first bite.
Traditionally, it is made with cherries, but you an use any kind of fruit, fresh or frozen.
I used here a combination of whole milk and coconut milk, and it turned out perfect! If you do not have coconut milk, use only milk.
