Bonjour mes belles,

We love apples and for some reason I prefer them cooked to raw.

This is an easy recipe and it tastes good hot or cold.

Clafoutis aux pommes a la normande

Ingredients

3 apples, peeled and cut in eighths

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons Calvados or other brandy or rum
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

3 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
2/3 cup flour
1/4 cup melted butter
1 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium skillet on medium heat. Add the apples, 2 tablespoons of sugar, Calvados and cinnamon and cook for 5 minutes, stirring to coat the apples.

Meanwhile, whisk the eggs with 1/2 cup sugar until blended. Sift the flour on top of this and then whisk until blended. Whisk in the melted butter and finally the milk and salt to make a smooth batter.

Place the apples in a greased 1-1/2 quart baking dish. Pour the batter on top. Bake for 25 minutes at 400 degrees F. Serve warm.

Makes 6 servings. 

bon vendredi à tous, Leeann x
