How-to

Prep Plums & Pan
1. In a medium bowl, toss the plums with sugar and let macerate for about 10 minutes
2. Pour the melted butter in your baking pan and swirl to coat the sides
Make Batter & Bake
1. In a food processor or blender, combine the milk, eggs, vanilla, sugar, flour, and salt. Use about 10 one-second pulses to combine. Do not over-mix
2. Transfer the macerated plums to your buttered pan
3. Pour the batter on top of the plums. Bake 45 to 55 minutes. The clafoutis is ready when it is lightly browned, slightly puffed, and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean
4. Remove from the oven and allow the clafoutis to cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes before slicing
5. Dust with confectioners sugar right before serving
