(aka: a french 'clafoutis' - or to you and me, a custard-y blueberry delight.)
This pudding is perfect for a warm evenings, it is special enough to be a real treat, yet retains the lightness which warm weather tends to invite to cooking. I realise that blueberries are not the most frugal of fruits and this is heavy on the cream, though, as a once-in-a-while treat I'm sure it won't break the bank or your summer slimming regime. What's more, little more than a blender whizz and a trip to the oven is needed to create this very impressive and delicious pudding..
This recipe serves 4-6 generously, and if you can get your hands on cherries rather than blueberries, they would also work very well!
Ingredients:
4 Eggs
85g Caster sugar
250ml cream (single or double)
225ml milk (whole milk is preferable)
300g blueberries
Icing sugar and cream to serve
To cook:
Grease a large, shallow oven proof dish.
Whizz all of the ingredients APART FROM THE BLUEBERRIES in a blender (or hand held whisk.)
Pour it into the dish and add the blueberries.
Cook in a preheated oven at 200c / gas 6 for about 40mins. You can tell it's done when the batter has risen and the custard has set (ie; no longer runny)
Serve with as much cream as you dare and a cold glass of rose wine.
hello yummy! and that homemade pizza looks great too, might need to be my lunch today!

ReplyDeleteYou're a great cooker!! Everything seems so delicious! I have some blackberries in my garden, I could do it, but now I don't have much time for cooking!thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteThis is comfort food at its finest. Blueberries happen to be my favourite with blackberries coming in a close second.
