Peach Clafoutis

| Peach
clafoutis |
A deliciously
fruity and sweet dessert which would compliment the lemon chicken
well.
Ingredients:
50 ml milk
1/2 a vanilla pod
75 ml of whipping cream
30 ml of amaretto
2 eggs (size 3)
60g caster sugar
pinch of salt
12g plain flour
4 fresh peaches, halved (or 1 x 425g tin of peach halves, drained)
a little butter
Method:
Preheat the oven - gas mark 3, 150 deg C.
Lightly butter an oven proof dish (about 8" diameter x
1" deep). Flour the tin lightly, too.
Bring the milk and vanilla pod to the boil and set aside for
five minutes to infuse.
Put the peach halves in the oven proof dish.
Whisk the eggs, sugar and salt until the mixture tripples in
volume (easiest done in an electric whisk) and fold in the flour.
Add the milk.
Pour the mixture over the peaches and bake in the oven for 25
- 30 minutes, or until just set.
Allow to cool slightly and turn out into a suitable serving
dish.
Chef's tip: Try this dessert using cherries instead of
the peach halves. Delicious!
