Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 9-inch round baking dish evenly with 2 tbsp butter.
Step 2: Spread 2 cups pitted fresh or frozen sour cherries evenly in the bottom of the dish. Scatter 1/2 cup white chocolate chips over the cherries.
Step 3: In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until smooth and slightly frothy.
Step 4: Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour until no lumps remain. Stir in 1 cup whole milk, 1/2 cup heavy cream, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until fully combined.
Step 5: Pour the batter gently over the cherries and white chocolate in the baking dish.
Step 6: Bake for 35-40 minutes until the clafoutis is puffed, golden at the edges, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 7: Let cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar if desired before slicing and serving warm or at room temperature.
