Easy Brandied Cherry Clafouti Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 cups canned tart cherries, drained
• 0.67 cup white sugar, divided
• 0.25 cup brandy
• cooking spray (such as Pam®)
• 1 cup milk
• 0.67 cup sifted all-purpose flour
• 3 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon lemon zest
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.13 teaspoon allspice
• 1 teaspoon confectioners' sugar, or as needed

Instructions

1. In a bowl, mix cherries, 1/3 cup white sugar, and brandy; let soak for 1 hour to infuse flavors.
2. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
3. Using a slotted spoon, arrange cherries in the prepared pie plate; pour the brandy mixture into a blender. Add the remaining 1/3 cup white sugar, milk, flour, eggs, vanilla extract, lemon zest, salt, and allspice to the blender. Pulse until the batter is smooth, then gently pour it over the cherries.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking until the clafouti is golden brown and puffy, approximately 45 to 50 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before dusting with confectioners' sugar and serving.
