DADDY CAKES DOUBLE STRAWBERRY CLAFOUTI
We prepared this wonderful dessert at the Orange County Super Fair when we were invited to do a cooking demonstration live and on stage.
A clafouti is a traditional French custard cake that originated in Limousin, France. Often studded with fruit, the dessert is best served warm, dusted with powdered sugar and, perhaps, sprinkled with a bit of fruit brandy. There are as many variations of clafouti as there are cooks. This a versatile and fantastic dessert.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 45 minutes
Ingredients:
* 2 8 oz pouches of Sensuous Strawberry Mix
* 1 1/4 cups water
* 4 cups fresh sliced Strawberries
* 1 tablespoon confectioners’ sugar (powdered)
Preparation:
Preheat an oven to 350F. Butter a 9-inch by 9-inch square baking dish or a 9-inch deep-dish pie round with the softened butter.
In a large bowl, whisk together ingredients until it forms a smooth, thin batter. Spread 3/4 cup of the batter onto the bottom of the prepared baking dish and bake it for 2-4 minutes. Watch the batter closely and remove it before it cooks through completely. It should just start to thicken and set when it is removed from the oven.
Transfer the dish to a heatproof surface and arrange the strawberries over the hot batter. Pour the remaining batter over the strawberries and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Sprinkle the confectioners’ sugar over the finished Strawberry Clafouti and serve it warm.
This Strawberry Clafouti recipe makes 8 servings. |
