How to Make Clafouti Aux Fruits Exotiques Guadeloupe Caribbean

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a shallow, oven-proof dish (approximately 8-inch diameter) with butter.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the diced exotic fruits and rum. Gently toss to coat and set aside for 10 minutes to allow the fruits to macerate.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs lightly until slightly frothy.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the whisked eggs, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Gradually add the sugar to the batter, whisking until smooth and well incorporated.
  7. In a small saucepan, heat the milk with the scraped vanilla bean over medium heat. Do not boil. Remove from heat once warm.
  8. Let the milk infuse with the vanilla bean for 5 minutes. Remove the vanilla bean and strain the milk into the batter.
  9. Whisk the milk and batter together until thoroughly blended and smooth.
  10. Stir in the fruit juices and rum from the macerated fruit.
  11. Arrange the macerated fruits evenly in the prepared baking dish.
  12. Pour the batter over the arranged fruits, ensuring they are mostly submerged.
  13. Bake in the preheated oven for 24-30 minutes, or until the clafoutis is puffed, golden brown, and set in the center.
  14. Let the clafoutis cool slightly before serving. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired, and serve warm.
