How to Make Cherry And Almond Clafouti Baked Custard

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. Grease a 20cm (8-inch) round pie dish with butter or margarine.
  3. Spread 2 cups of pitted fresh or frozen cherries evenly in the prepared dish.
  4. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup almond meal and ¾ cup gluten-free icing sugar until well combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs and 2 cups whole milk until light and frothy.
  6. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking constantly until a smooth batter forms.
  7. Pour the batter evenly over the cherries in the pie dish.
  8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the clafouti is set and lightly golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with a few moist crumbs.
