Equipment

  • 1 10 inch cast iron skillet
  • 1 2 quart mixing bowl

Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cup half and half or milk
  • ½ cup plus one tablespoon flour
  • 1 tiny pinch (⅛th tsp) ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter plus more for greasing the dish
  • A few scrapes of Meyer lemon zest
  • Pinch of kosher salt
  • 2 cups wild blueberries

Instructions

  • Preheat an oven to 350F.
  • Whisk all ingredients together if you're using all purpose flour. I use gluten free flour so I puree it with a hand blender as it won't develop the gluten. Grease a 10 inch cast iron pan or similar and heat it on medium heat until hot.
  • Pour in a thin layer of batter so the bottom of the pan is covered, about ¼ inch. Wait 30 seconds for it to begin cooking around the edges, then add the blueberries, spreading them out on the batter evenly.
  • Pour over the rest of the batter and bake until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean (about 20-25 minutes). Allow the clafoutis to rest for a few minutes before cutting into wedges and serving.
  • Serve wedges of the clafoutis with whipped cream, fresh wild blueberries, a dusting of powdered sugar or drizzles of maple syrup.
  • If you have some edible flowers like creeping bellflower or aromatic signet marigolds they make a nice garnish.
