Plum Clafouti

A family favourite that fills the house with a cinnamon aroma. A delicious plum dessert, dusted with icing sugar!

You will need:

• 6 tablespoons white sugar, divided
• 14 Italian prune plums, halved and pitted
• 3 eggs
• 1 ⅓ cups milk
• ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
• 1 ½ teaspoons grated lemon zest
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1 pinch salt
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter a 10 inch pie plate, and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sugar over the bottom.

Arrange the plum halves, cut side down, so that they cover the entire bottom of the pie plate. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of sugar over the top of the plums. In a blender, combine the remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar, eggs, milk, flour, lemon zest, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt. Process until smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour over the fruit in the pan.

Bake for 50 to 60 minutes in the preheated oven, or until firm and lightly browned. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Dust with confectioners’ sugar before serving.
