Cherry Clafouti

Cultural Context

Originating from the Limousin region of France, Clafouti is a rustic dessert traditionally made with black cherries. Its name derives from the Occitan word 'clafir,' meaning 'to fill,' referring to the way the batter envelops the fruit. This dish is often enjoyed in the summer when cherries are in season, and it has become a favorite in French households and beyond, with variations using other fruits like plums or apples.
