Instructions
Preheat your oven on 180'C/350'F
Slice the Plums into thin strips - I cut each plum in 8. Set aside.
Melt the Butter and set aside to cool.
In a large bowl, whisk the Eggs and Caster Sugar until foamy - at least for 2 minutes.
Sift in the Flour and Salt. Whisk until smooth (see note 1)
Add the Milk, melted Butter and Vanilla Extract and whisk until completely smooth - again, you shouldn't have any lumps (see note 2).
Grease a Glass or Ceramic dish and pour the Clafoutis batter in. Top with the sliced Plums.
Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until set in the middle.
Serve warm.
Notes
Ingredient Note:
This recipe is relatively low in sugar. Feel free to increase the sugar quantity if you would prefer a sweeter dessert, or if the plums you are using are not very sweet.
Instructions Notes:
Try to get rid of as many lumps as possible at this stage
What to do if you get big lumps: use an immersion blender to dissolve any lumps remaining.
