Apples

Apple Clafouti

This easy dessert, between a custard and cake, is perfect for a quick company dessert. If you like, serve it with softly whipped cream.

Preparation Time: 15 Minutes
Cooking Time: 1 Hour
Servings: 8
Ingredients:
  • 3 large Ontario Apples, Ida Red or Spy
  • 1/3 cup (75 mL) granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup (50 mL) brandy
  • 1 cup (250 mL) each milk and light cream
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup (50 mL) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) cinnamon
  • Pinch salt
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla
  • Icing sugar
Preparation:

Peel apples, core and cut in half lengthwise. Thinly slice crosswise and arrange attractively overlapping in rows in well-buttered 6-cup (1.5 L) shallow baking dish. Sprinkle with 2 tbsp (25 mL) of the sugar. Bake in 375°F (190°C) oven for 10 minutes; remove from oven. Sprinkle with brandy; let cool.

In blender or food processor, blend milk, cream, eggs, flour, cinnamon and salt for 2 minutes. Add remaining sugar and vanilla; blend for a few seconds. Pour over apples and bake in 375°F (190°C) oven for 45 to 50 minutes or until well puffed and golden. (Clafouti will fall upon cooling.) Serve barely warm sprinkled with icing sugar.
