Ingredients
- 3 medium, peeled and sliced 1/2-inch thick ripe peaches
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup toasted sliced almonds
- 2 tbsp, melted butter
- 2 tbsp honey
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 9-inch round baking dish with 2 tbsp melted butter, ensuring the sides are well coated.
- Step 2: Arrange 3 medium peeled and sliced peaches evenly in the bottom of the baking dish.
- Step 3: In a blender, combine 1 cup whole milk, 3 large eggs, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and 1/4 tsp salt. Blend on medium speed until smooth and slightly frothy, about 1 minute.
- Step 4: Pour the batter evenly over the peaches in the baking dish.
- Step 5: Sprinkle 1/4 cup toasted sliced almonds evenly over the top.
- Step 6: Bake for 40-45 minutes until the clafoutis is puffed, golden around the edges, and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
- Step 7: Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Drizzle 2 tbsp honey evenly over the warm clafoutis before serving.
