Cherry Clafouti

 

3 ½ C. Sweet Cherries, pitted

¼ C. Kirsh

¾ C. Wondra Flour

½ C. Granulated Sugar

4 large Eggs

1 large Egg Yolk

1 C. Milk

1 C. Heavy Cream

2 tsp. Vanilla

Powdered Sugar, for dusting

 

Preheat oven to 375.  Lightly butter a 13 x 9 baking dish.  Place cherries in bowl and add liqueur; let soak 15 minutes.  Drain cherries and spread into baking dish.  In small bowl, mix flour and sugar.  In large bowl whisk eggs with yolk, then whisk in milk and cream.  Add flour mixture to liquid and beat well to combine.  Add vanilla, stir, and pour evenly over cherries.  Bake until slightly puffy and browned, about 35 minutes.  Let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.  Best eaten within a few hours of making; refrigerating toughens the dessert.
