Clafoutis are chewy desserts, the texture of which is actually closer to canelés! What you've baked looks like a custard rather than a clafoutis. if you look at google image of clafoutis, you'll see for yourself.<br />http://www.mademoiselleinsydney.com/2012/11/04/gluten-free-blueberries-clafoutis-recipe-clafoutis-aux-myrtilles-sans-gluten/ is my clafoutis recipe :)<br />Olivia @ mademoiselle in Sydneyhttp://www.mademoiselleinsydney.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-73396085266869130462013-10-20T16:27:09.328-04:002013-10-20T16:27:09.328-04:00Glad you stumbled here and thank you for the nice ...Glad you stumbled here and thank you for the nice comment.Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439320856223502707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-14741064108679257502013-10-20T12:08:57.835-04:002013-10-20T12:08:57.835-04:00Just stumbled upon your blog while I was visiting ...Just stumbled upon your blog while I was visiting another blog.

I just seem to do it more often, which does *not* make me better, believe me. It's just fun to try some new things I've always been curious about. Thanks for sharing your clafoutis experience with the texture. I see many that are much more set but I was afraid of over-cooking and we do like my egg custards a bit soft. I know cherries are the standard definition of clafoutis. I may have to try other fruits in the future.
